Description Robert Buchholz (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2007-11-27 01:41:50 UTC
CVE-2007-6122 (http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2007-6122):
  The default_encrypt function in encrypt.c in IRC Services before 5.0.63, and
  5.1.x before 5.1.7, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service
  (daemon crash) via a long password.  NOTE: some of these details are obtained
  from third party information.
