Description:
Some vulnerabilities have been reported in ngIRCd, which can be exploited by malicious people to cause a DoS (Denial of Service).
The vulnerabilities are caused due to errors within the "Conn_GetCipherInfo()" and "Conn_UsesSSL()" functions in src/ngircd/conn.c, which can be exploited to crash the server.
Successful exploitation requires that the server is not running in standalone mode and is compiled with SSL/TLS support.
The vulnerabilities are reported in versions 13 through 14 prior to 14.1.
