CHAT: Ratbox IRCd 'm_capab.c' Denial of Service


This signature detects attempts to exploit a known vulnerability against Ratbox IRCd. A successful attack can result in a denial-of-service condition.

Extended Description

modules/m_capab.c in (1) ircd-ratbox before 3.0.8 and (2) Charybdis before 3.4.2 does not properly support capability negotiation during server handshakes, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and daemon crash) via a malformed request.
