Synopsis |
| 16 |
======== |
| 17 |
|
| 18 |
Multiple vulnerabilities have been found in the network components of |
| 19 |
UFO2000 that could result in the remote execution of arbitrary code. |
| 20 |
|
| 21 |
Background |
| 22 |
========== |
| 23 |
|
| 24 |
UFO2000 is a multi-player, turn-based tactical simulation. |
| 25 |
|
| 26 |
Affected packages |
| 27 |
================= |
| 28 |
|
| 29 |
------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| 30 |
Package / Vulnerable / Unaffected |
| 31 |
------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| 32 |
1 games-strategy/ufo2000 < 0.7.1062 >= 0.7.1062 |
| 33 |
|
| 34 |
Description |
| 35 |
=========== |
| 36 |
|
| 37 |
Five vulnerabilities were found: a buffer overflow in recv_add_unit(); |
| 38 |
a problem with improperly trusting user-supplied string information in |
| 39 |
decode_stringmap(); several issues with array manipulation via various |
| 40 |
commands during play; an SQL injection in server_protocol.cpp; and |
| 41 |
finally, a second buffer overflow in recv_map_data(). |
| 42 |
|
| 43 |
Impact |
| 44 |
====== |
| 45 |
|
| 46 |
An attacker could send crafted network traffic as part of a |
| 47 |
multi-player game that could result in remote code execution on the |
| 48 |
remote opponent or the server. A remote attacker could also run |
| 49 |
arbitrary SQL queries against the server account database, and perform |
| 50 |
a Denial of Service on a remote opponent by causing the game to crash. |
| 51 |
|
| 52 |
Workaround |
| 53 |
========== |
| 54 |
|
| 55 |
There is no known workaround at this time. |
| 56 |
|
| 57 |
Resolution |
| 58 |
========== |
| 59 |
|
| 60 |
UFO2000 currently depends on the dumb-0.9.2 library, which has been |
| 61 |
removed from portage due to security problems (GLSA 200608-14) . |
| 62 |
Because of this, UFO2000 has been masked, and we recommend unmerging |
| 63 |
the package until the next beta release can remove the dependency on |
| 64 |
dumb. |
| 65 |

# emerge --ask --verbose --unmerge ufo2000 |
