|
|
Nico Golde reported a boundary error in the HTTP::getAuthUserPass()
|
|
function when processing overly long HTTP Basic authentication
|
|
requests.

|
<impact type="high">
|
|
<p>
|
|
A remote attacker could send a specially crafted HTTP request to the
|
|
vulnerable server, possibly resulting in the remote execution of
|
|
arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running the application.
