CVE-2004-2371 describes a denial-of-service vulnerability affecting multiple Red Storm web-based games, including Ghost Recon, Desert Siege, and The Sum of all Fears. The flaw stems from improper return value checks, allowing remote attackers to cause a game hang by sending malformed packets with incorrect text string size values. With a CVSS score of 5.0, this vulnerability is easily exploitable over the network without authentication, leading to a partial loss of availability. While not actively exploited in the wild, public exploit code exists (EDB-23755), though there is minimal community discussion or media coverage surrounding this older vulnerability.
