Description: A buffer overflow vulnerability was reported in the Zeroo HTTP Server. A remote user can execute arbitrary code on the server.
INetCop reported that there are several buffer overflow vulnerabilities. One of the more serious ones is reported to be in the *HttpWrite() function, where user-supplied input is copied into a fixed size buffer without first checking the length of the input to be copied. A remote user can request a specially crafted URL to trigger the overflow and cause arbitrary code to be executed on the system.
Some demonstration exploit code is available in the Source Message.
Impact: A remote user can execute arbitrary code on the server with the privileges of the web daemon.
Solution: No solution was available at the time of this entry. The author has provided an unofficial patch, available in the Source |
