[svn-commits] rmudgett: branch 1.8 r410380 - /branches/1.8/main/http.c

[SVN commits to the Digium repositories]

Author: rmudgett
Date: Mon Mar 10 12:00:32 2014
New Revision: 410380

URL: http://svnview.digium.com/svn/asterisk?view=rev&rev=410380
Log:
AST-2014-001: Stack overflow in HTTP processing of Cookie headers.

Sending a HTTP request that is handled by Asterisk with a large number of
Cookie headers could overflow the stack.

Another vulnerability along similar lines is any HTTP request with a
ridiculous number of headers in the request could exhaust system memory.

(closes issue ASTERISK-23340)
Reported by: Lucas Molas, researcher at Programa STIC, Fundacion; and Dr. Manuel Sadosky, Buenos Aires, Argentina
