CWE-119  (opens in a new tab)

How to fix?

Upgrade Debian:13 mini-httpd to version 1.21-1 or higher.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream mini-httpd package and not the mini-httpd package as distributed by Debian. See How to fix? for Debian:13 relevant fixed versions and status.

mini_httpd 1.21 and earlier allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information from process memory via an HTTP request with a long protocol string, which triggers an incorrect response size calculation and an out-of-bounds read.
