Clever's Games Terminator 3: War of the Machines Remote Client Buffer Overflow Vulnerability

It has been reported that Terminator 3: War of the Machines game client may be prone to a buffer overflow vulnerability that may allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on a vulnerable system in order to gain unauthorized access. This vulnerability can be reproduced by sending server information of over 200 characters via the 'ServerInfo' variable to a vulnerable client. When the client reads in the string, sensitive regions of memory may be corrupted with attacker-supplied values.
