Description:
Wouter Coekaerts has discovered a vulnerability in Advanced mIRC Integration Plugin, which can be exploited by malicious people to bypass certain security restrictions.

The vulnerability is caused due to Advanced mIRC Integration Plugin not correctly filtering id3 tags before sending them to mIRC. This can be exploited to e.g. send arbitrary commands to a server by tricking a user into playing and announcing a specially crafted MP3 file.

The vulnerability is confirmed in version 2.49. Other versions may also be affected.
