If someone is setting up malicious servers on your Lan then your already screwed.  Yeah that has been verified, but buffer overflow on the stack resulting in remote code execution gives no details, so it could be broader Description
An exploitable buffer overflow vulnerability exists in the XML parser functionality of the MiniUPnP library. A specially crafted XML response can lead to a buffer overflow on the stack resulting in remote code execution. An attacker can set up a server on the local network to trigger this vulnerability.
Buffer overflow is present in client-side, miniupnpc, part of the library. Vulnerable part of the code is triggered when applications using miniupnpc library are doing initial network discovery upon startup, while parsing the replies from UPNP servers on the local network. Buffer overflow is triggered by an oversized XML element name. I don't see how it can be broader? BTW, I find your sig hilarious.  |

My latest stake is from October 27 before the patch. Now it tells me I have no mature coins, even after one month, what's wrong?
It says blockchain is up to date
edit: testing the light client, but it wiped my blockchain so it will take a few hours

Hello again, so I've downloaded a new copy of the wallet and re downloaded the block chain. I put one of my backed up wallet.dat files in and it doesn't show my address or balance. It just shows a new address with a zero balance. Can I get some help? Did I do some thing wrong. This isn't the first time I've updated the wallet this way.
Hi, Did you set the -datadir parameter? The normal steps as follow: 1, Quit VpnCoin wallet app at first, 2, Then copy the wallet.dat file to the blockchain directory, 3, Restart the wallet app. Hello again The normal steps do not work. I do not know what you mean by "set the -datadir parameter" I've never had to set anything after a update or reinstall. |

If you haven't changed the default directory before, then the normal steps should work. I mean the wallet should at least show your address correctly, and should not show new address. |

I am thinking that you have put a wrong wallet.dat backup in the roaming folder where VPNcoin folder resides. Try putting your original wallet.dat backup with exisiting balance again and make sure it's the correct one. |

I'll let you know how it goes. Ok so I set up a new computer with a fresh install of Windows 7 pro, installed the wallet and tried 4 different wallet back ups and the wallet doesn't seem to recognize any of them. Three of the back ups were on different USB sticks and the last one was backed up to google drive. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. |

This is the latest 1132 version
I suggest you should improve the CPU load during staking for the next update. Now it consumes almost 100% CPU load during staking. I think it is not difficult to improve this because many other altcoins actually don't consume more than 5% CPU load during staking on my VPS. |

Been awhile since I updated. Downloaded v1132.7z when I try and open it I get "The file or directory is corrupted and unreadable". 1128 will open fine but not connect Edit: NM Unzipped with winzip fixed it. Was using the default windows unzipper |
