Detail

Integer overflow in the ws_getpostvars function in Firefly Media Server (formerly mt-daapd) 0.2.4.1 (0.9~r1696-1.2 on Debian) allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via an HTTP POST request with a large Content-Length.

Title: DSA-1597 mt-daapd -- multiple vulnerabilities
Description: Three vulnerabilities have been discovered in the mt-daapd DAAP audio server (also known as the Firefly Media Server). The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifies the following three problems: Insufficient validation and bounds checking of the Authorization: HTTP header enables a heap buffer overflow, potentially enabling the execution of arbitrary code. Format string vulnerabilities in debug logging within the authentication of XML-RPC requests could enable the execution of arbitrary code. An integer overflow weakness in the handling of HTTP POST variables could allow a heap buffer overflow and potentially arbitrary code execution.
