Title: 4D Inc. WebSTAR DoS Vulnerability

Severity: HIGH

Description:

4D's WebSTAR is a web, mail and FTP server for Mac OS.

Due to a bug in improper handling of user input, it may be possible for users to cause a denial of service against WebSTAR. It has been reported that WebSTAR will crash if its http server recieves an oversized http request. Though unverified, it is believed this is a buffer overflow condition due to a lack of bounds checking.

Exploitation of this leads to a denial of service until a manual re-start.

Affected Products:

  • 4D WebSTAR 4.0.0
