Description:   Opened: 2007-12-19 03:12 0000
Secunia:

Luigi Auriemma has reported a vulnerability in PeerCast, which can be exploited
by malicious people to cause a DoS (Denial of Service) or potentially to
compromise a vulnerable system.

The vulnerability is caused due to a boundary error within the
"handshakeHTTP()" function. This can be exploited to cause a heap-based buffer
overflow via a specially crafted "SOURCE" HTTP request.
