      Army Men RTS Format String
    ------------------------------------------------------------------------

    SUMMARY

    Army Men RTS is a real-time strategy game developed by
    <http://www.pandemicstudios.com> Pandemic Studios and released in March
    2002.

    The Army Men RTS game server is affected by a format string bug in the
    name of the player that connects to it.

    DETAILS

    Vulnerable Systems:
     * Army Men RTS version 1.0

    If a player connects to a server and has a nickname with format string
    characters such as %n%n%n%n, the server will crash immediately. This is
    due to improper filtering of usernames at the server side.
