TITLE:
Eggdrop servmsg.c Denial of Service Vulnerability

SECUNIA ADVISORY ID:
SA35104

VERIFY ADVISORY:
http://secunia.com/advisories/35104/

DESCRIPTION:
Thomas Sader has reported a vulnerability in Eggdrop, which can be
exploited by malicious people to cause a DoS (Denial of Service).

The vulnerability is caused due to an error in the processing of
private messages within the server module
(/mod/server.mod/servrmsg.c). This can be exploited to cause a crash
by sending a specially crafted message to the bot.

Successful exploitation requires that the attacker is connected to
the same IRC network as Eggdrop.

The vulnerability is reported in version 1.6.19.

SOLUTION:
Update to Eggdrop 1.6.19+ctcpfix.

PROVIDED AND/OR DISCOVERED BY:
Thomas Sader
