VULHUB ™

BitchX has been reported prone to a buffer overflow vulnerability. Reportedly, under certain circumstances, when an excessive amount of data is supplied to a specific BitchX function an internal memory buffer is overflowed. This action may cause adjacent memory to be corrupted with attacker-supplied values. This issue could be leveraged to execute arbitrary commands within the vulnerable client. This vulnerability was reported to affect BitchX 1.0c19 earlier versions may also be affected.
