Description Jan Lieskovsky 2009-05-15 16:36:26 UTC 
A stack-based buffer overflow in mod/server.mod/servrmsg.c, which might allow user-assisted, remote IRC servers to execute arbitrary code via a long private message, was originally found in Eggdrop 1.6.18, and possibly earlier versions (CVE-2007-2807).Thomas Sader reported, the original fix, fixing the issue
was incomplete (introduced another flaw).
