DESCRIPTION:
Luigi Auriemma has reported multiple vulnerabilities in atvise
webMI2ADS, which can be exploited by malicious people to disclose
potentially sensitive information and cause a DoS (Denial of
Service).

1) Input passed via the URL is not properly verified before being
used to read files. This can be exploited to read arbitrary files via
directory traversal attacks.

2) A NULL pointer dereference error within the basic access
authentication can be exploited to crash the server by sending a
specially crafted "Authorization" HTTP header.

3) The application does not properly restrict access to the
"shutdown" page, which can be exploited to terminate the service.

4) An error within the processing of the "Content-Length" HTTP header
can be exploited to cause a huge CPU and memory resource consumption
by sending HTTP request containing a negative content length.

The vulnerabilities are reported in version 1.0 for Windows XP
Embedded. Other versions may also be affected.

SOLUTION:
Use a proxy or firewall to filter malicious requests.
