Description:
A vulnerability has been identified in the server shipped with LBreakout, which allows malicious people to gain system access.
The problem is that input isn't validated properly allowing malicious people to insert format specifiers. This could potentially be exploited to execute arbitrary code on the system running LBreakout server.
The vulnerability has been reported to affect version 2.5beta and later (previous versions didn't include the server).
Solution:
Do not use the server functionality on networks, where untrusted users can connect.
