In NetHack before 3.6.5, an invalid extended command in value for the
AUTOCOMPLETE configuration file option can cause a buffer overflow
resulting in a crash or remote code execution/privilege escalation. This
vulnerability affects systems that have NetHack installed suid/sgid and
shared systems that allow users to upload their own configuration files.
Users should upgrade to NetHack 3.6.5.
