Id Description
41639 Nagios Plugins check_http.c redir Function Location Header Response Overflow

A remote overflow exists in Nagios Plugins. Nagios Plugins fails to check for a boundary in check_http.c in the redir function caused by an overly long HTTP location header response resulting in a buffer overflow. With a specially crafted request, an attacker can cause arbitrary code execution resulting in a loss of integrity.
