lighttpd < 1.4.54 Integer Overflow

critical Web App Scanning Plugin ID 113454

Synopsis

lighttpd < 1.4.54 Integer Overflow

Description

According to its banner, the version of lighttpd running on the remote host is prior to 1.4.54. It is, therefore, affected by a signed integer overflow which might allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service.

Note that the scanner has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Upgrade to lighttpd version 1.4.54 or later.
