Vulnerability in GoAhead Web Server 3.1.x causes Denial Of Service. Fix available in version 3.2

Code
`#!/usr/bin/python  
  
'''  
GoAhead Web Server version prior to 3.1.3 is vulnerable to DoS. A fix exists for version 3.2.  
The Web Server crashes completely once this requests is received. The vulnerability doesn't seem to be exploitable on Linux versions ... could be wrong :) !
