divert data from a legitimate site to an attacker-specified site.
Successful exploits will allow the attacker to manipulate cache data,
potentially facilitating man-in-the-middle, site-impersonation, or denial-of-
service attacks.
Successfully exploiting of the Buffer Overflow vulnerability allows a
remote attacker to execute arbitrary code with superuser privileges,
resulting in a complete compromise of the affected computer. Failed
exploits will cause a denial of service.");
