This buffer overflow is exposed when building with gcc 4.x, it never was exposed with previous compilers because they apparently layed out the stack differently. The result of this buffer overflow is that a single 0-byte will be written at the end of the buffer. At that position on the stack there is (at least in the previous build) a saved local variable from a calling function. This local variable is a pointer to a BUFFER struct and this pointer has its least significant byte set to zero. This prevents mixmaster from properly decrypting incoming type2 messages. It's not likely that this can be exploited to execute arbitrary code, tho evidence or argument to the contrary are of course welcome.
