DESCRIPTION:
Luigi Auriemma has reported some vulnerabilities in the Unreal
Engine, which can potentially be exploited by malicious people to
compromise a user's system.
The vulnerabilities are caused due to format string errors when
processing the "CLASS" parameter of a "DLMGR" command, downloading a
malformed package (PKG), or when processing the "LEVEL" parameter of
a "WELCOME" command.
Successful exploitation may allow the execution of arbitrary code but
requires that the victim connects to a malicious server.
SOLUTION:
Use in trusted network environments only. Connect to trusted servers
only.
