Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions TinTin++ version 1.97.9 WinTin++ version 1.97.9

Description The issue is related to a stack-based buffer overflow in the add line buffer function, which can be triggered by remote attackers sending a long chat message. This overflow is connected to the conversion from LF to CRLF, allowing attackers to execute arbitrary code.

Recommendations For TinTin++ version 1.97.9, consider disabling the add line buffer function until a patch is available to prevent exploitation. For WinTin++ version 1.97.9, restrict the handling of long chat messages to minimize the risk of arbitrary code execution.
