NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream miniupnpc package and not the miniupnpc package as distributed by Echo. See How to fix? for Echo:latest relevant fixed versions and status.

The getHTTPResponse function in miniwget.c in MiniUPnP 1.9 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via crafted headers that trigger an out-of-bounds read.
