DESCRIPTION:
Luigi Auriemma has reported a vulnerability in Battlefield 2 and
Battlefield 2142, which can be exploited by malicious people to
compromise a user's system.

The vulnerability is caused due to an input sanitation error when
e.g. downloading sponsor and community logos. This can be exploited
to store malicious files in arbitrary directories on a client's
computer via directory traversal attacks.

Successful exploitation requires that the client is tricked into
connecting to a malicious server.

The vulnerability is reported in Battlefield 2 version 1.5.3153-802.0
and Battlefield 2142 version 1.10.48.0.

SOLUTION:
Connect to trusted servers only.
