CVE-2009-1071

CVSS v2.0

9.3

High

VectorAV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Icarus version 2.0
Description The issue is a stack-based buffer overflow that allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service, resulting in an application crash, or execute arbitrary code. This is achieved by using a crafted Portable Game Notation (.pgn) file.
Recommendations For Icarus version 2.0, avoid using the application to open .pgn files from untrusted sources until a patch is available. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting the use of .pgn file handling functionality to minimize the risk of exploitation.
