| Description: | Several local/remote vulnerabilities have been discovered in lighttpd, a fast webserver with minimal memory footprint. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifies the following problems: A memory leak in the http_request_parse function could be used by remote attackers to cause lighttpd to consume memory, and cause a denial of service attack. Inconsistant handling of URL patterns could lead to the disclosure of resources a server administrator did not anticipate when using rewritten URLs. Upon filesystems which don't handle case-insensitive paths differently it might be possible that unanticipated resources could be made available by mod_userdir. |
