Multiple heap-based buffer underflows in the readPostBody function in
cgiutil.c in mapserv in MapServer 4.x through 4.10.4 and 5.x before 5.4.2
allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via (1) a crafted
Content-Length HTTP header or (2) a large HTTP request, related to an
integer overflow that triggers a heap-based buffer overflow. NOTE: this
issue reportedly exists because of an incomplete fix for CVE-2009-0840.

Notes

Author Note
kees for Intrepid and later, this should be mitigated by _FORTIFY_SOURCE.
