Description
The miner statistics HTTP API in EWBF Cuda Zcash Miner Version 0.3.4b hangs on incoming TCP connections until some sort of request is made (such as "GET / HTTP/1.1"), which allows for a Denial of Service attack preventing a user from viewing their mining statistics by an attacker opening a session with telnet or netcat and connecting to the miner on the HTTP API port.
Affected configurations
• ewbf cuda zcash miner 0.3.4b
