Epic CTCP Nickname Server Message Buffer Overrun Vulnerability

A remotely exploitable buffer overrun has been reported in Epic. This issue may reportedly be exploited by a malicious server that supplies an overly long nickname in a CTCP messages, potentially allowing for execution of arbitrary code in the context of the client user. It may be also be possible for a malicious client to send such a message, but it is likely that the server will limit the length.
