CVE-2012-2942

Publication date 27 May 2012

Last updated 24 July 2024

Ubuntu priority

Low

Why this priority?

Buffer overflow in the trash buffer in the header capture functionality in HAProxy before 1.4.21, when global.tune.bufsize is set to a value greater than the default and header rewriting is enabled, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service and possibly execute arbitrary code via unspecified vectors.
