Description:
A vulnerability has been reported in LTris, which can be exploited by malicious, local users to gain escalated privileges.

The vulnerability is caused due to a boundary error in the handling of highscore lists. This can be exploited to cause a buffer overflow by manipulating the global highscore list.

Successful exploitation may allow execution of arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running the vulnerable game, but requires permissions to modify the global highscore list.
