Title: Netscape FastTrack Server GET Buffer Overflow Vulnerability
Severity: HIGH
Description:
The version of Netscape FastTrack server that ships with UnixWare 7.1 is vulnerable to a remote buffer overlow. By default, the httpd listens on port 457 of the UnixWare host and serves documentation via http. If you pass the server a GET request with more than 367 characters, the stack overflows and the EIP is overwritten making it possible to execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the httpd (usually nobody).
Affected Products:
- Netscape FastTrack Server 2.0.1a
- SCO Unixware 7.1.0
