CVE-2002-1773 describes a buffer overflow vulnerability in ICQ 2.6x for MacOS X versions 10.0 through 10.1.2. This flaw allows remote attackers to trigger a denial of service and potentially execute arbitrary code by sending a specially crafted, long request. With a CVSS score of 7.5, it is considered highly severe, requiring no authentication and having low attack complexity, with potential impacts on confidentiality, integrity, and availability. While there is an ExploitDB entry for a denial-of-service exploit, there is no evidence of active exploitation, Metasploit modules, or significant community discussion or media coverage, suggesting it is not widely targeted.
