Buffer Overflow in htdigest in Apache 2.0.52

CVE-2005-1344 · HIGH Severity

AV:N/AC:L/AU:N/C:P/I:P/A:P

Buffer overflow in htdigest in Apache 2.0.52 may allow attackers to execute arbitrary code via a long realm argument. NOTE: since htdigest is normally only locally accessible and not setuid or setgid, there are few attack vectors which would lead to an escalation of privileges, unless htdigest is executed from a CGI program. Therefore this may not be a vulnerability.
