1. Description:
----------------

Vendor's Description:

"Avirt Voice acts as an H.323 gateway between IP networks. It allows
users to operate H.323 applications, like Microsoft NetMeeting, Intel
Video Phone, or Netspeak Webphone, from behind a firewall.
Because Voice is a software solution, it is more easily scalable and
much less expensive than hardware alternatives."

2. The bug:

The program doesn't well manage the received strings on the TCP port
1080. In fact it will have a buffer overflow.

3. The code:
-------------

To test the vulnerability simply send to the server ( port 1080 ) a
string like:

GET aaaa[ 1113 of a ]aaaa
