Bernhard Wymann TORCS

Stack-based buffer overflow in modules/graphic/ssgraph/grsound.cpp in The Open Racing Car Simulator (TORCS) before 1.3.3 and Speed Dreams allows user-assisted remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a long file name in an engine sample attribute in an xml configuration file.

The (1) torcs, (2) nfsperf, (3) accc, (4) texmapper, (5) trackgen, and (6) nfs2ac scripts in TORCS 1.3.1 place a zero-length directory name in the LD_LIBRARY_PATH, which allows local users to gain privileges via a Trojan horse shared library in the current working directory.
