Multiple vulnerabilities have been identified in BomberClone, which could be exploited by remote attackers to cause a denial of service or disclose sensitive information.
The first issue is due to an error in the "rscache_add()" [pkgcache.c] function when caching certain packets, which could be exploited by attackers to crash a vulnerable application.
The second weakness is due to an error in the "send_pkg()" [packets.c] function when handling packets with a specially crafted "len" value, which could be exploited by attackers to gain knowledge of sensitive information (e.g. environment variables).
The third flaw is due to an error when handling error packets, which could be exploited by attackers to crash a vulnerable application.
