This signature detects attempts to exploit a known vulnerability in Poster Software PUBLISH-iT. The vulnerability is due to insufficient validation on the length of entry names in a "styl" record when processing PUI files. A remote unauthenticated attacker can exploit this vulnerability by enticing a user to open a malicious PUI file. Successful exploitation could result in arbitrary code execution in the context of the currently logged in user.
