1) Introduction
===============


IGI 2 is a game developed by Innerloop (http://www.innerloop.com) and
released in Febrary 2003.
It has been defined by its creators as "a tactical stealth-based FPS
with plenty of tension and action".

2) Bug
======


The IGI 2 server is affected by a format string bug in the logging
function of the RCON commands.
FYI, RCON commands are used by admins to administer their servers
remotely. This function exists in both dedicated and normal servers and
cannot be disabled.

A practical example of the bug "in action" is the following:

- Attacker sends: /hello-%08x.%08x.%08x.%08x
- Server logs:    [17:17:28] Consoled:
'hello-082aeefc.00000131.0061b64c.00000011' run from 192.168.0.3:32768
