High

Base vector

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

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Geo++ GNCASTER versions 1.4.0.7 and earlier

Description The issue allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service, resulting in an application crash, and possibly execute arbitrary code. This can be achieved by sending multiple requests for a non-existent file using a long URI.

Recommendations For Geo++ GNCASTER versions 1.4.0.7 and earlier, consider restricting access to the application until a fix is available to prevent potential denial of service and code execution attacks. As a temporary workaround, limit the length of accepted URIs to prevent crashes from long URI requests.
