Summary

The (1) sgetstr and (2) getint functions in Sauerbraten 2006_02_28, as derived from the Cube engine, allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (segmentation fault) via long streams of input data that trigger an out-of-bounds read, as demonstrated using SV_EXT tag data in the Cube engine, which is not properly handled by getint.

descriptionThe remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-200603-10 (Cube: Multiple vulnerabilities) Luigi Auriemma reported that Cube is vulnerable to a buffer overflow in the sgetstr() function (CVE-2006-1100) and that the sgetstr() and getint() functions fail to verify the length of the supplied argument, possibly leading to the access of invalid memory regions (CVE-2006-1101). Furthermore, he discovered that a client crashes when asked to load specially crafted mapnames (CVE-2006-1102). Impact : A remote attacker could exploit the buffer overflow to execute arbitrary code with the rights of the user running cube. An attacker could also exploit the other vulnerabilities to crash a Cube client or server, resulting in a Denial of Service. Workaround : Play solo games or restrict your multiplayer games to trusted parties.

    Luigi Auriemma reported that Cube is vulnerable to a buffer
    overflow in the sgetstr() function (CVE-2006-1100) and that the
    sgetstr() and getint() functions fail to verify the length of the

    regions (CVE-2006-1101). Furthermore, he discovered that a client
    crashes when asked to load specially crafted mapnames (CVE-2006-1102).
  
Impact :

    A remote attacker could exploit the buffer overflow to execute
    arbitrary code with the rights of the user running cube. An attacker
    could also exploit the other vulnerabilities to crash a Cube client or
