|
Florian Westphal discovered a buffer overflow caused by an integer
|
|
underflow in the Lists_MakeMask() function of lists.c.

<impact type="high">
|
|
<p>
|
|
A remote attacker can exploit this buffer overflow to crash the ngIRCd
|
|
daemon and possibly execute arbitrary code with the rights of the
|
|
ngIRCd daemon process.
