This can be exploited to read arbitrary files via directory traversal attacks. 2) A NULL pointer dereference error within the basic access authentication can be exploited to crash the server by sending a specially crafted "Authorization" HTTP header. 3) The application does not properly restrict access to the "shutdown" page, which can be exploited to terminate the service. 4) An error within the processing of the "Content-Length" HTTP header can be exploited to cause a huge CPU and memory resource consumption by sending HTTP request containing a negative content length. The vulnerabilities are reported in version 1.0 for Windows XP Embedded. Other versions may also be affected. SOLUTION: Use a proxy or firewall to filter malicious requests.
