Description: Some vulnerabilities have been reported in Streamripper, which can be exploited by malicious people to compromise a user's system. The vulnerabilities are caused due to boundary errors within the "httplib_parse_sc_header()" function when handling certain HTTP headers (e.g. "Server", "Location"). These can be exploited to cause a buffer overflow by e.g. tricking the user into connecting to a malicious server. The vulnerabilities are reported in versions prior to 1.62.2. Solution: Update to version 1.62.2. http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=6172 Provided and/or discovered by: Chris Rohlf Changelog: 2007-08-14: Updated advisory based on information from Chris Rohlf. 2007-09-14: Added CVE reference.
