Description:
eEye Digital Security has reported a vulnerability in Winny, which can be exploited by malicious people to compromise a user's system.
The vulnerability is caused due to a boundary error within the parsing of specific commands received via the file transfer port. This can be exploited to cause a heap-based buffer overflow and allows arbitrary code execution.
The vulnerability has been reported in version 2.0 b7.1. Prior versions may also be affected.
Note: It has also been reported that a stack-based buffer overflow exists within the parsing of another command.
