CVE-2014-3788: Cogent DataHub web server can run attacker code
CVE-2014-3788 · published 12 years ago
Summary
The web server built into Cogent DataHub versions older than 7.3.5 can be tricked into copying data past the end of a memory area when it receives a request with a negative content length. This could let a remote attacker run their own programs on the server. Upgrade to version 7.3.5 or later, or apply the vendor’s patch, to fix the issue.
