Stack-based buffer overflow in BitchX 1.1 Final allows remote IRC servers to execute arbitrary code via a long string in a MODE command, related to the p_mode variable.
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.
