VULHUB ™

Fastream NetFile FTP/Web Server is reported susceptible to an HTTP HEAD request denial of service vulnerability. This vulnerability allows remote attackers to create many simultaneous HTTP HEAD requests to the vulnerable server application. Once the attacker has created sufficient connections, further requests from legitimate users will reportedly be denied. Due to the failure of the application to close the previous connections, it is conjectured that attackers can indefinitely block further requests to the Web server. Version 7.1 of Fastream NetFIle FTP/Web Server was reported susceptible to this vulnerability. Other versions are also likely affected.
