CVE-2007-3917
First published: Tue Oct 09 2007(Updated: )
Description of problem: From Novell bugzilla (see URL): A malicious user could send a long chat message with multibyte characters, the server would truncate the message on a fixed length, without paying attention to the multibyte characters. This led to invalid utf-8 on the client and an uncaught exception was thrown. Note both wesnoth and the wesnoth server are affected. Additional information: I am aware of no further details, nor the fix.
