The Quake 3 engine, as used in multiple game packages, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (shutdown game server) and possibly crash the server via a long infostring, possibly triggering a buffer overflow.

Call of Duty 1.4 and earlier allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (game end) via a large (1) query or (2) reply packet, which is not properly handled by the buffer overflow protection mechanism. NOTE: this issue might overlap CVE-2005-0430.
