CVE-2007-1371: Buffer Overflow
First published: Sat Mar 10 2007(Updated: )
Multiple buffer overflows in Conquest 8.2a and earlier (1) allow local users to gain privileges by querying a metaserver that sends a long server entry processed by metaGetServerList and allow remote metaservers to execute arbitrary code via a long server entry processed by metaGetServerList; (2) allow attackers to have an unknown impact by exceeding the configured number of metaservers; and allow remote attackers to corrupt memory via a SP_CLIENTSTAT packet with certain values of (3) unum or (4) snum, different vulnerabilities than CVE-2003-0933.
