* Title: Remote POST Buffer Overflow vulnerability in Pserv (Pico Server).
0x01. Description
Pico server is very small webserver of C language base that support several platforms.
Webserver has very interesting function that watch buffer overflow basically.
( Developer seems to hate very buffer overflow. ;-} )
Can confirm as following.
__
bash# cat *.c | grep flow
printf("Buffer overflow on document path parsing\n");
{ /* checking for buffer overflow */
printf("Buffer overflow on POST read\n");
if (totalRead > BUFFER_SIZE) /* checking for buffer overflow */
printf("Buffer overflow on request read\n");
bash#
--
There's thing which among them, there is no substantiality.
Indicate wrong part in 184 line to main.c.
This part is POST method area.
__
178 reqSize = strlen(req);
179 i = 0; j = 0;
180 while (i < MAX_REQUEST_LINES && j < reqSize)
181 {
182 k = 0;
183 while (req[j] != '\n')
184 token[k++] = req[j++]; // here.
185 token[k-1] = '\0'; /* the line read ends with an \n we skipit and count it as read */
186 j++;
187 strcpy(reqArray[i], token);
188 i++;
189 }
--
Through POST method, can attempt Denial of Service (DoS) Attack.

Do you want exploit code? Very regrettable. :-(
We don't want to compose DoS code.
