Multiple vulnerabilities have been identified in csDoom, which could be exploited by remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands or cause a denial of service.
The first issue is due to a buffer overflow error in the "SV_BroadcastPrintf()" function that does not properly handle an overly long chat message, which could be exploited by remote attackers to compromise a vulnerable system.
The second flaw is due to a buffer overflow error in the "SV_SetupUserInfo()" function that does not properly handle an overly long "nickname" or "teamname", which could be exploited by remote attackers to crash a vulnerable application.
The third vulnerability is due to a format string error in the "PrintString()" function that does not properly handle certain strings passed to the console, which could be exploited by attackers to execute arbitrary commands on a vulnerable server or client.
