Summary
Stack-based buffer overflow in the file parsing function in Tonec Internet Download Manager, possibly 5.14 and earlier, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted AppleDouble file containing a long string. NOTE: this is probably a different vulnerability than CVE-2005-2210.
