Description: A vulnerability was reported in the SurfNOW proxy software. A remote user can cause the proxy to stop working properly.
Donato Ferrante reported that a remote user can send a specially crafted HTTP GET request to the target server to cause denial of service conditions on the proxy.
As a demonstration exploit, the following request can reportedly be sent several times (approximately seven times) to trigger the flaw:
GET aaaaaaaaaaaaa[ 490 kb of a ]aaaa HTTP/1.1nnn
Impact: A remote user can cause denial of service conditions on the proxy.
Solution: No solution was available at the time of this entry. According to the report, the vendor plans to issue a fix in the next product release.
