Synopsis

The remote caching server is affected by a denial of service vulnerability.

Description

According to its banner, the version of Apache Traffic Server running on the remote host is 5.1.x prior to 5.1.2. It is, therefore, affected by a denial of service vulnerability caused by a flaw in the 'HttpTransact.cc' file related to an error in internal buffer sizing.

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Upgrade to Apache Traffic Server 5.1.2 or later.
