| Detailed Description |
The BadBlue server, according to its banner, has a denial of service vulnerability via a large number of connections. BadBlue is a P2P file sharing Web server distributed by Working Resources for Microsoft Windows operating systems. BadBlue versions 2.52 and earlier are vulnerable to a denial of service attack. By establishing approximately 24 concurrent connections to a vulnerable Web server from the same host, a remote attacker could cause the Web server to deny all incoming HTTP requests.
