Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions StarCraft Brood War versions 1.15.1 and earlier

Description The issue allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service, resulting in an application crash. This occurs when a malformed map is used, triggering an out-of-bounds read during a minimap preview.

Recommendations For versions 1.15.1 and earlier, avoid using malformed maps to prevent the application crash. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting the use of minimap previews until a fix is available. At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this issue.
