VERIFY ADVISORY:
http://secunia.com/advisories/14483/

CRITICAL:
Highly critical

IMPACT:
DoS, System access

WHERE:
>From remote

SOFTWARE:
Ca3DE
http://secunia.com/product/4738/

DESCRIPTION:
Luigi Auriemma has reported two vulnerabilities in Ca3DE, which can
be exploited by malicious people to cause a DoS (Denial of Service)
and compromise a vulnerable system.

1) A format string error in the command handling can be exploited to
execute arbitrary code on a vulnerable server by sending a specially
crafted command containing format specifiers.

2) An error in the handling of text strings without a delimiting NULL
character can be exploited to crash a vulnerable server by sending a
specially crafted text string.

The vulnerabilities have been reported in versions released in March
2004 and prior.

SOLUTION:
The vulnerabilities have been fixed in the CVS repository and will be
included in an upcoming release.
