  <description>
    <p>
    Luigi Auriemma discovered two buffer overflow vulnerabilities in
    Warzone 2100 Resurrection. The recvTextMessage function of the Warzone
    2100 Resurrection server and the NETrecvFile function of the client use
    insufficiently sized buffers.
    </p>
  </description>
  <impact type="high">
    <p>
    A remote attacker could exploit these vulnerabilities by sending
    specially crafted input to the server, or enticing a user to load a
    specially crafted file from a malicious server. This may result in the
    execution of arbitrary code with the permissions of the user running
    Warzone 2100 Resurrection.
    </p>
  </impact>
  <workaround>
    <p>
    There is no known workaround for this issue.
    </p>
    <p>
    There is no known workaround at this time.
    </p>
  </workaround>
  <resolution>
    <p>
    All Warzone 2100 Resurrection users should upgrade to the latest
    version:
    </p>
    <code>
    # emerge --sync
    # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose &quot;&gt;=games-strategy/warzone2100-2.0.4&quot;</code>
