Quake II server before R1Q2, as used in multiple products, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via a modified client that asks the server to send data stored at a negative array offset, which is not handled when processing Configstrings and Baselines.

Security readout for executives and security teams

CVE-2004-2592 is a remote denial-of-service issue in Quake II server code before R1Q2. A modified client can trigger an application crash. The business impact is availability loss for exposed game servers or products embedding this server code, not data theft based on the provided sources. Likely exposure is limited to legacy Quake II servers, R1Q2-predecessor builds, or products that reused affected Quake II server code. Internet-facing game servers are the main concern. The provided affected-product data is incomplete and lists no specific vendor or CPE. Prioritize if the organization operates public legacy game servers or embedded Quake II-derived services. For most enterprises, this is a niche availability risk with low likelihood unless legacy gaming infrastructure is present. Mitigation focus: Inventory Quake II server deployments and products embedding Quake II server code.; Upgrade pre-R1Q2 Quake II server code where applicable.; Check original vendor or maintainer guidance for product-specific fixes..
