CVE-2007-6454 (http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2007-6454):
  Heap-based buffer overflow in the handshakeHTTP function in servhs.cpp in
  PeerCast 0.1217 and earlier, and SVN 344 and earlier, allows remote attackers
  to cause a denial of service and possibly execute arbitrary code via a long
  SOURCE request.
