i-drive is a provider of web-based storage space where users can store downloaded files from the internet. Filo is the application used to download files to the i-drive account and a component of it is a proxy server. This proxy server is susceptible to a buffer overflow attack. A malicious user may transmit an unusually long HTTP GET request to the proxy server which would overrun a heap buffer thus allowing for arbitrary code to be executed.
