Discussion
Blue Coat K9 Web Protection Centralized Server HTTP Responses Buffer Overflow Vulnerability
Blue Coat K9 Web Protection is prone to a stack-based buffer-overflow vulnerability because it fails to perform adequate boundary checks when receiving HTTP responses from the centralized server 'sp.cwfservice.net'.
Attackers can exploit this issue via man-in-the-middle attacks to execute arbitrary code within the context of the affected application. Failed exploit attempts may result in a denial-of-service condition.
Blue Coat K9 Web Protection 3.2.44 with Filter 3.2.3 is affected; other versions may also be affected.
