Multiple vulnerabilities have been identified in MiMMS, which could be exploited by remote attackers to compromise a vulnerable system. These flaws are due to buffer overflow errors in the "send_command()", "string_utf16()", "get_data()", and "get_media_packet()" functions that do not properly handle malformed data received from the server, which could be exploited by attackers to execute arbitrary commands via a malicious media stream.
