Bow Sineath discovered a boundary error in the file
mod/server.mod/servrmsg.c when processing overly long private messages
sent by an IRC server.

<impact type="normal">
<p>
A remote attacker could entice an Eggdrop user to connect the bot to a
malicious server, possibly resulting in the execution of arbitrary code
on the host running Eggdrop.

<workaround>
<p>
There is no known workaround at this time.
</p>
</workaround>
<resolution>

</p>
<code>
# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=net-irc/eggdrop-1.6.18-r3"</code>
