Stack-based buffer overflow in the h_handlepeer function in http.cpp in httpdx 1.4, and possibly 1.4.3, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a long HTTP GET request.
The product performs operations on a memory buffer, but it reads from or writes to a memory location outside the buffer's intended boundary. This may result in read or write operations on unexpected memory locations that could be linked to other variables, data structures, or internal program data.
