NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream teeworlds package and not the teeworlds package as distributed by Ubuntu. See How to fix? for Ubuntu:23.10 relevant fixed versions and status.

In Teeworlds 0.7.2, there is a failed bounds check in CDataFileReader::GetData() and CDataFileReader::ReplaceData() and related functions in engine/shared/datafile.cpp that can lead to an arbitrary free and out-of-bounds pointer write, possibly resulting in remote code execution.
