  Xpand Rally Format String Vulnerability
------------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY

 <http://www.techland.pl> Xpand Rally is "a cool rally game developed by
Techland".

The Xpand Rally game is affected by an format string bug that can be
exploited by an attacker to execute malicious code through the sending of
a malformed message.

DETAILS

Vulnerable Systems:
 * Xpand Rally version 1.1.0.0 and prior

The attacker cannot sends the malformed message directly from his game
because he will exploit his same machine, so is suggested the usage of a
program that modifies the packets on the fly (like an UDP proxy for
example). Both servers and clients are vulnerable and the vulnerability is
in-game.

Exploit:
The exploit is a simple UDP proxy server that substitutes the keyword
crashmenow with a sequence of %n patterns causing the crash of the server
or the client that receives it.
