Buffer Overflow in NullSoft Shoutcast Server 1.9.2 Discovered

CVE-2003-1174

What is CVE-2003-1174?

The NullSoft Shoutcast Server version 1.9.2 contains a buffer overflow vulnerability that allows local users to exploit the server by supplying excessively long input through the 'icy-name' or 'icy-url' fields. This can result in a denial of service (DoS), as the server may become unresponsive or crash due to the mishandled input. It is crucial for administrators using affected versions to implement measures to mitigate this risk.
