The vulnerability is caused due to a boundary error in the processing of Soulseek search messages. This can be exploited to cause a stack-based buffer overflow by sending a search query containing an overly long parameter. Successful exploitation may allow execution of arbitrary code. The vulnerability is reported in versions 157 NS and 156. Other versions may also be affected. SOLUTION: Use another product.
