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

Asura is a game engine written by Rebellion and used in their games.
Rogue Trooper and Prism are the only two games (as far as I know) which
use the new network protocol which leads to the vulnerability reported
in this advisory, the older games were based on DirectPlay (Judge
Dredd) and Gamespy SDK (Sniper Elite).

#######################################################################

======
2) Bug
======

A buffer-overflow vulnerability is located in the function which
handles the 0xf007 packet used for the challenge B query.
In this function the data passed by the client is copied (without
checks on its length) to a stack buffer of 256 bytes used for sending
the data back to the client, something similar to a ping.

4) Fix

No fix.
Rebellion is one of those vendors which have never replied to my past
mails.
