CVE-2010-02050.000.05Mar 3, 2010The png_decompress_chunk function in pngrutil.c in libpng 1.0.x before 1.0.53, 1.2.x before 1.2.43, and 1.4.x before 1.4.1 does not properly handle compressed ancillary-chunk data that has a disproportionately large uncompressed representation, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory and CPU consumption, and application hang) via a crafted PNG file, as demonstrated by use of the deflate compression method on data composed of many occurrences of the same character, related to a "decompression bomb" attack.
CVE-2008-40770.000.01Sep 15, 2008The CGI scripts in (1) LedgerSMB (LSMB) before 1.2.15 and (2) SQL-Ledger 2.8.17 and earlier allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (resource exhaustion) via an HTTP POST request with a large Content-Length.
CVE-2008-35340.000.00Aug 8, 2008The shmem_delete_inode function in mm/shmem.c in the tmpfs implementation in the Linux kernel before 2.6.26.1 allows local users to cause a denial of service (system crash) via a certain sequence of file create, remove, and overwrite operations, as demonstrated by the insserv program, related to allocation of "useless pages" and improper maintenance of the i_blocks count.
CVE-2007-26500.000.05May 14, 2007The OLE2 parser in Clam AntiVirus (ClamAV) allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (resource consumption) via an OLE2 file with (1) a large property size or (2) a loop in the FAT file block chain that triggers an infinite loop, as demonstrated via a crafted DOC file.
CVE-2007-00860.000.02Jan 5, 2007The Apache HTTP Server, when accessed through a TCP connection with a large window size, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (network bandwidth consumption) via a Range header that specifies multiple copies of the same fragment. NOTE: the severity of this issue has been disputed by third parties, who state that the large window size required by the attack is not normally supported or configured by the server, or that a DDoS-style attack would accomplish the same goal
CVE-2005-23090.000.02Jul 19, 2005Opera 8.01 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (CPU consumption) via a crafted JPEG image, as demonstrated using random.jpg.
CVE-2004-12010.000.02Jan 10, 2005Opera 7.54 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash from memory exhaustion), as demonstrated using Javascript code that continuously creates nested arrays and then sorts the newly created arrays.
CVE-2002-18760.000.01Dec 31, 2002Microsoft Exchange 2000 allows remote authenticated attackers to cause a denial of service via a large number of rapid requests, which consumes all of the licenses that are granted to Exchange by IIS.
CVE-2001-06660.000.00Oct 30, 2001Outlook Web Access (OWA) in Microsoft Exchange 2000 allows an authenticated user to cause a denial of service (CPU consumption) via a malformed OWA request for a deeply nested folder within the user's mailbox.
