Vulnerability description

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack or execute arbitrary code.

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input in the "schemasystem.dll". A remote attacker can create a gaming server, invite a victim to this server, because a crafted map is mishandled during a GetValue call and execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service condition on the target system.
