VULHUB ™

A vulnerability has been discovered in EPIC and EPIC4. The problem occurs due to insufficient bounds checking on data interchanged between clients. Specifically, by using the PRIVMSG command to send a message of excessive length to a vulnerable client, it may be possible to corrupt the processes heap memory. Successful exploitation of this issue would likely cause the vulnerable client to crash. Although it has not yet been confirmed, there is a possibility that this issue can be exploited to execute arbitrary commands on target system.
