VULHUB ™

A denial of service vulnerability has been discovered in Monit 4.1 and earlier that may be trivially exploited by an anonymous attacker. The problem is said to occur due to Monit's failure to sanitize remotely supplied HTTP parameters before passing them to memory allocation functions. This could result in an unexpected condition that could ultimately result in the Monit daemon crashing.
