Description:
A vulnerability has been identified in AnalogX Proxy, which can be exploited by malicious people to compromise a vulnerable system.

The vulnerability is caused due to a boundary error when handling long URLs. A malicious person on a local network can exploit this by sending a request containing a long, specially crafted URL through the proxy server.

Successful exploitation can result in execution of arbitrary code with the privileges of AnalogX Proxy.

By using a little social engineering this could potentially be exploited by remote people as well.

The vulnerability has been reported in version 4.13. Prior versions may also be affected.
