Positive Technologies (AI Summary)

CVSS v2.0

7.8

High

Base vector

AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:C

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions: adzapper versions prior to 2006-01-29

Description: The issue allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service, specifically CPU consumption, by exploiting the squid redirect script in adzapper. This can be achieved by sending a URL with a large number of trailing / (forward slashes), potentially leading to inefficient regular expressions.

Recommendations: For versions prior to 2006-01-29, consider updating to a version released after this date to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, restrict access to the squid redirect script to minimize the risk of exploitation.
