Yahoo Messenger 5.5 and below suffers from a buffer overflow that was originally discovered and fixed in May of 2002, but has since resurfaced. Systems Affected: Windows NT/2000/SP1/SP2/SP3, Windows ME, Windows 95/98, Windows XP.

---[BACKGROUND
Yahoo messenger is a world wide scale Instant Messaging client.
Yahoo provide this service free of charge allowing people
all over the world to communicate with one another.
--[DESCRIPTION
In May 2002 this vulnerbility was found, and apparently fixed,
but later indications now show that the latest yahoo messenger
[5.5] is STILL vulnerable.
--[ANALYSIS
There existed a buffer overflow in one of the clients options known
as Yahoo! Messenger Call Center. When this was passed a long string of
320 chars it would crash the client, overwriting some important
frame pointers.
If the attacker was to construct a malicious URI, he could execute arbitary
code on the victims computer, leading to remote access.
The vicitim does not have to have yahoo messenger open or logged in for this
attack to be effective. The URI handler that Yahoo messenger uses can be triggered
from an email or webpage. An example of this can be seen at http://yahoo.dtors.net

*
*
* The Ducky duck yahooo messager version 5.5 remote
* exploiter is ready for u all u need to do is to compile
* the source file and your ready to go..
*
*
* Usage:
*
* Owning yahoo messenger was a royal pain in the ass but a worthy
* challenge. I could not hit the shellcode address that was a 0x0012xxxx
* if the least significant byte is lower that 0x24 it turns it into 0x00,
* so if the shellcode is at 0x0012ddf4 u end up with 0x0000ddf4, now how
* did I solve this problem?
*
* I searched for a jmp 0xC (EB0C) code in one of the dynamically linked
* library's (dll's) and pointed my instruction pointer to that position.
* Now there is a jump instruction inside the base pointer at location
* ebp+0xc, that address points right in the middle of the nops, viola!
* We own this place :)
*
* cheers, rave....
*
*
* The buffer looks like this
*
* |-<-<-<--|
* <Fillup x offset><JMP 0x3><EIP><NOPS><SHELLCODE>
* ^__________^
*
*
* Special credits go out to bob (bob@dtors.net) for pointing me the
* vulnerabilety its crewl the work he does.
*
* Enjoy Rave..
