2) Bugs
=======
--------------------
A] memory corruption
--------------------
UT3 is affected by a problem in the handling of a specific type of
packet. In this particular type of packet there is a 16 bit field which
specifies the size of the data that follows and if this string is
longer than about 172 bytes a memory corruption will occur allowing an
attacker to control various registers which could allow the execution
of malicious code.
---------------
B] NULL pointer
---------------
If the amount of data about I talked previously is bigger than the
total size of the packet the string will not be read and a NULL pointer
exception will occur.
This type of bug is easily recognizable on the server because the
message "Error: Attempted to multiply free a voice packet" is
displayed before the crash when the malformed packet is received.
