DESCRIPTION:
A vulnerability has been reported in VooDoo cIRCle, which can be
exploited by malicious users to cause a DoS (Denial of Service).
The vulnerability is caused due to a boundary error in the handling
of packets from BOTNET connections. This can be exploited to cause a
buffer overflow by sending a specially crafted packet from a
connected malicious bot.
Successful exploitation crashes a vulnerable bot, but requires access
to establish a BOTNET connection (e.g. knowledge of password or client
SSL certificate).
The vulnerability has been reported in version 1.0.20 through 1.0.32.
SOLUTION:
Update to version 1.0.33.
