Descriptions

Apache Traffic Server 2.0.x and 3.0.x before 3.0.4 and 3.1.x before 3.1.3 does not properly allocate heap memory, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (daemon crash) via a long HTTP Host header.

Apache Traffic Server v2.0.x y v3.0.x anteriores a v3.0.4 y v3.1.x anteriores a v3.1.3 no posiciona de forma adecuada la memoria dinámica, lo que permite a atacantes remotos provocar una denegación del servicio (caída del demonio) a través de una cabecera larga HTTP Host.
