2) Bug
======
Unicode stack overflow in the building of a message while handling a
nmx file:
0048D4DC 51 PUSH ECX ; our "folder name" string
0048D4DD 8D5424 0C LEA EDX,DWORD PTR SS:[ESP+C]
0048D4E1 50 PUSH EAX ; "Importing into %s."
0048D4E2 52 PUSH EDX ; stack buffer
0048D4E3 FF15 287D5400 CALL DWORD PTR DS:[547D28] ; USER32.wsprintfW
The vulnerability is exploitable through an nmx file and it's possible
to automate the exploitation using the "nim" URL protocol inside a web
browser and the "import" command with "filename" pointing to the web
server or UNC path hosting the malformed nmx file.

3) The Code
===========
This scenario can be tested using the provided html proof-of-concept
after having replaced the "SERVER" string with the name of the server
where is located the nim_1.nmx file:
