CVE-2010-3438 (2019-11-12)

libpoe-component-irc-perl before v6.32 does not remove carriage returns and line feeds. This can be used to execute arbitrary IRC commands by passing an argument such as \"some text\\rQUIT\" to the 'privmsg' handler, which would cause the client to disconnect from the server.

Changes for version 2.2 - 2002-05-24

  • dngor found an excellent page about IRC server numeric codes, which I added a link to in the documentation.
  • dngor also gave me two more patches: one to avoid some deprecation warnings introduced in the latest version of POE, and another which fixed a bug in one of his earlier patches. He's such a stud.
