Lib CGI is a freely available, open source CGI library for C programmers. It is available for Unix and Linux operating systems. It has been reported that a buffer overflow exists in the Lib CGI development library. Due to improper bounds checking in an include file, programs making use of this include, or programs linked against libraries using this include could be vulnerable to a remote buffer overflow attack. This could result in an attacker gaining remote access with the privileges of the web server process.
