lighttpd -- Remote DOS in CRLF parsing

Lighttpd SA: If the connection aborts during parsing "\r\n\r\n" the server might get into a infinite loop and use 100% of the CPU time. lighttpd still responses to other requests. This can be repeated until either the server limit for concurrent connections or file descriptors is reached. The bug...

php-exec.txt

Hello, This is not a new problem see http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/9302. However, we also "discovered" this a few weeks ago and contacted Apache and PHP about it. According to Stefan Esser PHP its due to Apache's failure to open file descriptors with the close on exec flag. However, according ...

CVE-2003-1307

The modphp module for the Apache HTTP Server allows local users with write access to PHP scripts to send signals to the server's process group and use the server's file descriptors, as demonstrated by sending a STOP signal, then intercepting incoming connections on the server's TCP port. NOTE: th...

CVE-2006-3741

The perfmonctl system call sysperfmonctl in Linux kernel 2.4.x and 2.6 before 2.6.18, when running on Itanium systems, does not properly track the reference count for file descriptors, which allows local users to cause a denial of service file descriptor consumption...

CVE-2006-3741

CVE-2006-3741 concerns the perfmonctl (sys_perfmonctl) system call in Linux kernels 2.4.x and 2.6.x prior to 2.6.18 on Itanium. The issue is an improper reference-count accounting for file descriptors, which can allow local users to exhaust file descriptors and cause a denial of service. The desc...
