Buffer overflow in the handling of command line arguments in Skype 1.0.x.94 through 1.0.x.98 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a callto:// URL with a long non-existent username, a different vulnerability than CVE-2004-1777.
The product performs operations on a memory buffer, but it reads from or writes to a memory location outside the buffer's intended boundary. This may result in read or write operations on unexpected memory locations that could be linked to other variables, data structures, or internal program data.
