| Detailed Description |
The Sambar Server, according to its banner, has a denial of service vulnerability in the /search/results.stm. Sambar Server is a multi-threaded HTTP server with integrated FTP, Mail, and Proxy server services. Sambar Server versions 3.x, 4.x, 5.x, and possibly version 6.0 are vulnerable to a denial of service attack, caused by a buffer overflow vulnerability in the '/search/results.stm' application. By sending a specially-crafted request to the affected server, a remote attacker could cause the server to crash.
* Note: This check solely relied on the banner of the remote HTTP server to assess this vulnerability, so this might be a false positive.
