Wouter Coekaerts has reported a vulnerability in Quassel IRC, which
can be exploited by malicious people to hijack IRC connections.
The vulnerability is caused due to the application not properly
handling quoted newline characters when processing CTCP requests.
This can be exploited to inject newlines into the user's response,
which can be used to e.g. execute IRC commands in the context of the
user's IRC session.
