High

Base vector

AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Unreal Tournament 3 versions 1.3beta4 and earlier

Description The issue allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service, resulting in memory corruption and daemon crash, or possibly execute arbitrary code. This is achieved by sending a UDP packet with a large value in a certain size field, followed by a data string of that size.

Recommendations For Unreal Tournament 3 versions 1.3beta4 and earlier, consider restricting access to the UDP protocol until a patch is available to prevent potential exploitation. As a temporary workaround, disabling the handling of large UDP packets may help minimize the risk of denial of service or code execution.
