Buffer overflows in AnalogX Proxy before 4.12 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service and possibly execute arbitrary code via (1) a long HTTP request to TCP port 6588 or (2) a SOCKS 4A request to TCP port 1080 with a long DNS hostname.
Public exploits
Exploit or proof-of-concept code for this vulnerability is publicly available, which lowers the bar for attackers. Treat it as a reason to patch sooner.
