Magic User Interface(MUI) is a system for creating and maintaining graphical user interfaces for the Amiga. It has been incorporated into many Amiga Internet applications. Although MUI is not specifically the source of the issue, MUI-based applications are affected. Some MUI-based Internet software does not sufficiently validate user-supplied input. As a result, it may be possible for a remote attacker to execute arbitrary commands on the underlying operating system of a host running MUI-based Internet software. It has been reported that the majority of Amiga Internet applications which incorporate MUI are prone to this issue. Vaporware applications such as Voyager, AmIRC, etc. are reportedly not vulnerable. Additionally, the file sharing application Amster is also not vulnerable. Users are advised to contact individual vendors of MUI-based Internet applications about the possibility that their products are vulnerable and the availability of fixes.
