VULHUB ™

NetSnap is a webcam application which transmits images and enables a user to directly publish footage to the web. NetSnap is shipped with an http server. Due to an unchecked buffer in the handling of GET requests, NetSnap is subject to a buffer overflow attack. Requesting a GET command comprised of 342 bytes will cause a buffer overflow and allow the execution of arbitrary code. Successful exploitation of this vulnerability could lead to a complete compromise of the host.
