Summary: KNetWalk 3.0.1 potential integer overflow, score cheat
and division by zero crash
Product: kde
Version: 3.0.1
Platform: unspecified
OS/Version: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: minor
Priority: NOR
Component: general
AssignedTo: unassigned-bugs at kde.org
ReportedBy: jaak at ristioja.ee
Version: 3.0.1 (using KDE 4.7.4)
OS: All
In MainWindow::rotationPerformed() method, m_clickCount is incremented but not
checked for overflow. This makes it possible to cheat on your score.
Additionally, for example, if m_clickCount reaches -3 or -2 at the moment the
game is won, then in MainWindow::gameOver() method, penalty may be set to 0.0,
resulting in a division by zero when calculating a value for the score
variable. :)
Reproducible: Didn't try
Steps to Reproduce:
I held down the keyboard button for rotate, but it seemed to take too long to
reproduce so I abandoned the effort. You're welcome to try thou...
Expected Results:
Perhaps a "Game lost!" message would suffice when m_clickCount goes past
(INT_MAX - 1).
It's very unlikely this bug will ever be triggered in real life.
