Unknown · Electric Sheep · CVE-2005-4582
**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions** Electric Sheep version 2.6.3 **Description** The issue allows remote attackers to download and display arbitrary MPEG movie files. This can be achieved through various means, including DNS spoofing, a URL on the command line, or a URL in the configuration file. The attack vectors are similar to those applicable to common web browsers communicating with untrusted web servers, which may indicate a broader issue related to DNS design. However, a client would reasonably expect to receive content only from the server. **Recommendations** For Electric Sheep version 2.6.3, consider implementing authentication and integrity checks from the server to the client to prevent remote attackers from downloading and displaying arbitrary MPEG movie files. As a temporary workaround, restrict the ability to load content from untrusted sources, such as those obtained through DNS spoofing or unverified URLs.
