What is CVE-2007-3159?

The MiniWeb Http Server version 0.8.x contains a vulnerability that enables remote attackers to exploit a denial of service condition. This can be achieved by sending a malicious negative value in the Content-Length HTTP header, leading to an application crash. This vulnerability potentially disrupts services, making the application unavailable to legitimate users, and underscores the importance of validating HTTP headers in web server implementations to ensure robust security.
