Package: tremulous Version: 1.1.0-4.1 Severity: grave Tags: security Justification: user security hole
CVE-2006-3325 is a vulnerability in the Quake 3 engine. Due to missing checks, a malicious server can overwrite configuration variables ("cvars") on clients connecting to it, even those that are normally write-protected. Some cvars, such as fs_homepath and cl_allowdownload, are security-sensitive; in particular, this vulnerability can be combined with CVE-2006-3324 to overwrite arbitrary files with the user's privileges. Tremulous is based on a fork of that engine, and version 1.1.0 as shipped in Debian has the same vulnerability. The de facto upstream for the Quake 3 engine is ioquake3, in which this vulnerability was fixed in r811. Debian's ioquake3 package is not vulnerable. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-rc-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact listmas...@lists.debian.org
