Discussion

4D Inc. WebSTAR DoS Vulnerability

Malicious remote users may cause 4D's WebSTAR to crash.

This is possible because WebSTAR cannot handle oversized http requests. This may be due to a buffer overflow condition.

It may be possible to execute arbitrary code. A successful denial of service attack will crash the software and require a manual restart.
