A format string error and a boundary error in the game's IRC public
chat interface and the game's Server Browser can be exploited by
sending specially crafted input to the public chat IRC server or by
hosting a game with format specifiers in its name.

The vulnerabilities have been reported in versions 1.20 and prior.
