CVE-2004-0074

CVE-2004-0074 describes multiple buffer overflow vulnerabilities in xsok 1.02, a game developed by Michael Bischoff. These flaws allow local users to gain elevated privileges by supplying an excessively long LANG environment variable or a long -xsokdir command-line argument. With a CVSS score of 4.6 (AV:L/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P), this vulnerability is considered medium severity, requiring local access and low attack complexity to achieve partial confidentiality, integrity, and availability impacts. While not listed in CISA's KEV catalog, exploit code for both buffer overflows is publicly available on ExploitDB, though there is no indication of active exploitation or significant community discussion.
