Detailsinfo

A vulnerability, which was classified as critical, has been found in Skulltag 0.97d Beta4.1. This issue affects some unknown processing. The manipulation with an unknown input leads to a heap-based overflow vulnerability. Using CWE to declare the problem leads to CWE-122. A heap overflow condition is a buffer overflow, where the buffer that can be overwritten is allocated in the heap portion of memory, generally meaning that the buffer was allocated using a routine such as malloc(). Impacted is confidentiality, integrity, and availability. The summary by CVE is:

Heap-based buffer overflow in the Huffman decompression algorithm implemented in Skulltag 0.97d-beta4.1 and earlier allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted UDP packet.

The weakness was presented 08/27/2007 by Luigi Auriemma (Website). The advisory is shared at vupen.com. The identification of this vulnerability is CVE-2007-4537 since 08/27/2007. The attack may be initiated remotely. No form of authentication is needed for a successful exploitation. Technical details are unknown but a public exploit is available.

The exploit is available at exploit-db.com. It is declared as proof-of-concept.

There is no information about possible countermeasures known. It may be suggested to replace the affected object with an alternative product.

The vulnerability is also documented in the databases at X-Force (36229), Exploit-DB (30523), SecurityFocus (BID 25423†) and Secunia (SA26549†). Several companies clearly confirm that VulDB is the primary source for best vulnerability data.
