Athttpd is said to be prone to a remote buffer overrun that could allow an attacker to execute arbitrary code. The problem occurs due to insufficient bounds checking when handling GET requests. As a result, an attacker may be capable of overrunning the bounds of an internal memory buffer and effectively control the flow of execution.

** Remote atphttpd <= 0.4b linux exploit by r-code d_fence@gmx.net **
** **
** The exploit was successfuly tested against Debian 3.0 (Woody) **
** and Red Hat 8.0 (Psyche) (both) with atphttpd 0.4b (latest) **
** installed from source.. **
** **
** The exploit gains the privilages of the user who runs atphttpd **
** which is usually root.. the offsets may vary even for the same **
** distros.. (e.g. on two different woody`s with the same athttpd **
** installed on I got two different offsets working 1300 and 2400), so you **
** you might have to play with them... **
** **
** example: **
** **
** bash~$ ./athttpd localhost 2400 **
** **
**(<->) Atphttpd <= 0.4b remote exploit by r-code d_fence@gmx.net **
**(<->) Greetz to: czarny,|stachu|, Nitro, Zami, Razor, Jedlik, Cypher **
** **
** <==> OFFSET: 0x8fc **
** <==> RET_ADDR: 0xbffff6fe **
** <==> Connecting to 'localhost' on port '80'.. **
** <==> Sending packets.. OO
