SECUNIA ADVISORY ID:
SA39730

VERIFY ADVISORY:
http://secunia.com/advisories/39730/

DESCRIPTION:
Some vulnerabilities have been reported in Torque Game Engine, which
can be exploited by malicious people to cause a DoS (Denial of
Service).

1) A vulnerability is caused due to an error in the processing of
connection requests, which can be exploited to cause a crash of an
application using the engine.

Successful exploitation requires that an attacker is able to join the
server.

2) Various errors in the processing of network packets can be
exploited to cause a crash, but may only affect certain games using
the engine.

SOLUTION:
Host games only in a trusted network environment.
