SILC Toolkit HTTP Server Format String Vulnerability

SILC Toolkit is prone to a format-string vulnerability because it fails to use the correct type as a format specifier to a formatted-printing function.

An attacker may exploit this issue to execute arbitrary code in the context of the vulnerable application. Failed exploit attempts will likely result in a denial-of-service condition.

Versions prior to SILC Toolkit 1.1.9 are affected.
