Description:
Luigi Auriemma has reported some vulnerabilities in Vavoom, which can be exploited by malicious people to cause a DoS (Denial of Service) or potentially compromise a vulnerable system.
1) A format string error exists within the "SAY" command in sv_main.cpp. This can be exploited to crash the server or potentially execute arbitrary code by sending a specially crafted chat message containing format specifiers.
2) A boundary error exists within the "VThinker::BroadcastPrintf()" function in p_thinker.cpp. This can be exploited to cause a buffer overflow by sending an overly long chat message.
Successful exploitation may allow the execution of arbitrary code.
3) An assertion error exists within the "VStr::Resize()" function in str.cpp. This can be exploited to crash a server by e.g. sending a specially crafted UDP datagram to the server (default port 26000).
