http://secunia.com/advisories/31158/

CRITICAL:
Moderately critical

IMPACT:
DoS

WHERE:
>From remote

SOFTWARE:
SWAT 4 1.x
http://secunia.com/product/19343/

DESCRIPTION:
Luigi Auriemma has reported some vulnerabilities in SWAT 4, which can
be exploited by malicious people to cause a DoS (Denial of Service).

1) A NULL pointer dereference error can be exploited to cause a crash
via a specially crafted "VERIFYCONTENT" or "GAMECONFIG" command sent
before joining a server.

2) An error in the processing of the "RS" string in a
"GAMESPYRESPONSE" command can be exploited to cause a runtime error
via an overly long (greater than 71 bytes) "RS" string.

The vulnerabilities are reported in version 1.1. Other versions may
also be affected.

SOLUTION:
Use in trusted network environments only.
