A recent source code
auditing by Stefan Esser from
e-matters has revealed a number of vulnerabilities in eMule, xMule and lMule - some of them serious enough to allow a hostile takeover of your computer.
All eMule versions up to 0.29c are affected. On August 17th eMule released a new version 0.30a that fixes all found security holes. So if you use eMule, get the new version
now from the
eMule website.
