Descriptions

lighttpd 1.4.18, and possibly other versions before 1.5.0, does not properly calculate the size of a file descriptor array, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a large number of connections, which triggers an out-of-bounds access.

lighttpd 1.4.18 y posiblemente otras versiones anteriores a la 1.5.0, no calcula correctamente el tamaño del array descriptor de archivos, lo que permite a atacantes remotos provocar una denegación de servicio (caída) a través de un gran número de conexiones, lo cual dispara un acceso fuera de límite.
