Description

An issue was discovered in Embedthis GoAhead before 4.0.1 and Appweb before 7.0.2. An HTTP POST request with a specially crafted "Host" header field may cause a NULL pointer dereference and thus cause a denial of service, as demonstrated by the lack of a trailing ']' character in an IPv6 address.

Affected configurations

• embedthis appweb (< 7.0.2) • embedthis goahead (< 4.0.1) • juniper junos 12.3 • juniper junos 12.3x48 • juniper junos 15.1 • juniper junos 15.1x49 • juniper junos 15.1x53 • juniper junos 16.1 • juniper junos 16.2 • juniper junos 17.1 • juniper junos 17.2 • juniper junos 17.3 • juniper junos 17.4 • juniper junos 18.1
