Denial Of Service (DoS)

torbot is vulnerable to Denial of Service (DoS). An attacker is able to cause a denial-of-service (DoS) conditions on a vulnerable system by exploiting a regular expression that has exponential complexity by tricking a user into opening a malicious link or by sending a specially crafted HTTP request to the vulnerable Torbot server. Once the vulnerability is exploited, the attacker could cause the Torbot server to consume excessive CPU resources, which would prevent legitimate users from accessing the server.
