| Test ID: | 1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.140801 |
| Category: | Web Servers |
| Title: | thttpd Buffer Overflow Vulnerability |
| Summary: | The htpasswd implementation of thttpd is affected by a buffer; overflow that can be exploited remotely to perform code execution. |
| Description: | Summary: The htpasswd implementation of thttpd is affected by a buffer overflow that can be exploited remotely to perform code execution. Vulnerability Insight: If you are just using htpasswd to set up your own web auth files locally, there is no security implication from this bug. On the other hand if you are giving remote users access to htpasswd, they could conceivably use the buffer overrun to accomplish remote code execution (RCE) as the web server user. Solution: Update to version 2.28 or later. CVSS Score: 7.5 CVSS Vector: AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P |
