Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions vxWeb version 1.1.4

Description The issue is a stack-based buffer overflow that can be triggered by a long HTTP GET request, potentially allowing remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code.

Recommendations For vxWeb version 1.1.4, consider restricting access to the HTTP GET request endpoint until a patch is available. As a temporary workaround, limiting the length of HTTP GET requests may help minimize the risk of exploitation. At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
