Multiple buffer overflows in the HandleEmotsConfig function in the GG Client in Gadu-Gadu 7.7 Build 3669 allow user-assisted remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (gg.exe process crash) via a long string in an emots.txt file.
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.
