Discussion

Small HTTP Server Incomplete Request Denial of Service Vulnerability

Small HTTP Server is a full service web server. This utility is less than 30Kb and requires minimal system resources.

By requesting multiple GET, HEAD or POST commands and closing the connection before the server has responded, the server will crash. A restart of the application is required in order to gain normal functionality.
