Rit Research Labs TinyWeb Server Remote Denial of Service Vulnerability

It has been reported that TinyWeb server may be prone to a denial of service vulnerability that may allow a remote attacker to cause the software to crash. The issue may be caused by sending the server a /cgi-bin/.%00./dddd.html HTTP GET request.

This vulnerability may be successfully exploited to cause the software to act in an unstable manner leading to a crash or hang.

TinyWeb version 1.9 has been reported to be prone to this issue, however other versions may be vulnerable as well.
