Format string vulnerability in the WebDAV implementation in webservd in Sun Java System Web Server 7.0 Update 6 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (daemon crash) and possibly have unspecified other impact via format string specifiers in the encoding attribute of the XML declaration in a PROPFIND request.
The product uses a function that accepts a format string as an argument, but the format string originates from an external source.
