<h2><a class="toc-backref" href="#id17" name="bopen-failure-mode"><tt class="literal"><span class="pre">bopen()</span></tt> failure mode</a></h2>
<dl>
<dt>Description:</dt>
<dd>New failure behavior for <tt class="literal"><span class="pre">bopen()</span></tt> (see <tt class="literal"><span class="pre">balloc.c</span></tt>)</dd>
<dt>Fix:</dt>
<dd>Changed failure behavior of the bopen() function (suggested by Simon
Byholm).  If the malloc() request fails, we reset the bopenCount
variable, and thus allow the client code to reattempt the open with
a smaller memory request.</dd>

<dl>
<dt>Description:</dt>
<dd><p class="first">When running on Windows 95/98/ME, URLs requested with path components
matching a set of reserved DOS device names caused the WebServer to crash.</p>
<p>The names that cause the crash are:</p>
<pre class="last literal-block">
aux
con
nul
clock$
config$
</pre>
</dd>
<dt>Fix:</dt>
<dd><p class="first">Code added to the <tt class="literal"><span class="pre">websValidateUrl()</span></tt> function to check the contents of
the parsed URL against the list of prohibited names. If any of those names
are present in the parsed URL, the URL is rejected as invalid.</p>
<p>The code that checks for these prohibited pathname components checks for
them in the form of either:</p>
<pre class="literal-block">
http://&lt;&lt;server address&gt;&gt;/aux
</pre>
<p>or:</p>
<pre class="literal-block">
http://&lt;&lt;server address&gt;&gt;/aux:
</pre>
<p class="last">where any non-alphanumeric character following one of the prohibited names
will cause the URL request to be rejected.</p>

<dt>Summary:</dt>
<dd>There were two vulnerabilities in <tt class="literal"><span class="pre">webs.c</span></tt>. Sending a POST message
with a content-length but no data resulted in an attempt to perform
a <tt class="literal"><span class="pre">strlen()</span></tt> on a NULL pointer (thanks to Richard Cullen). Also,
sending an HTTP POST message with a Content-Length header indicating
that the length of the posted data was less than zero would crash
the server (thanks to Auriemma Luigi).</dd>

<h2><a class="toc-backref" href="#id28" name="directory-traversal-exploit">Directory Traversal Exploit</a></h2>
<dl>
<dt>Summary:</dt>
<dd>Several sources have reported that requesting an URL with URL-encoded
backslashes (%5C) allow accessing files located outside the server's
designated web root. This should only have been possible on Windows, as
URL-encoded forward slashes (%2F) were already being handled correctly.</dd>
<dt>Fix:</dt>
<dd>Modified <tt class="literal"><span class="pre">default.c</span></tt> so that any backslash characters created as
part of decoding the URL string are converted (in place) to forward
slashes. The pre-existing directory-traversal detection code then
rejects the bad URL as expected.</dd>
