Detailsinfo

A vulnerability has been found in ea Crysis 1.1/1.2/1.21 and classified as problematic. This vulnerability affects some unknown functionality. The manipulation with an unknown input leads to a null pointer dereference vulnerability. The CWE definition for the vulnerability is CWE-476. A NULL pointer dereference occurs when the application dereferences a pointer that it expects to be valid, but is NULL, typically causing a crash or exit. As an impact it is known to affect availability. CVE summarizes:

The HTTP/XML-RPC service in Crysis 1.21 (game version 1.1.1.6156) and earlier allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a long HTTP request, which triggers a NULL pointer dereference.
