> I.   Background

> II.  Problem Description
> 
> A programming error in the OPIE library could allow an off-by-one buffer
> overflow to write a single zero byte beyond the end of an on-stack
buffer.
> 
> III. Impact
> 
> An attacker can remotely crash a service process which uses OPIE when
> stack protector is enabled.
