mod_auth (http_auth.c) in lighttpd before 1.4.16 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (daemon crash) via unspecified vectors involving (1) a memory leak, (2) use of md5-sess without a cnonce, (3) base64 encoded strings, and (4) trailing whitespace in the Auth-Digest header. (CVSS:6.4) (Last Update:2012-10-30)

mod_access.c in lighttpd 1.4.15 ignores trailing / (slash) characters in the URL, which allows remote attackers to bypass url.access-deny settings. (CVSS:8.3) (Last Update:2012-10-30)

connections.c in lighttpd before 1.4.16 might accept more connections than the configured maximum, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (failed assertion) via a large number of connection attempts. (CVSS:4.3) (Last Update:2012-10-30)

lighttpd before 1.4.14 allows attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a request to a file whose mtime is 0, which results in a NULL pointer dereference. (CVSS:7.8) (Last Update:2008-11-15)

lighttpd 1.4.12 and 1.4.13 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (cpu and resource consumption) by disconnecting while lighttpd is parsing CRLF sequences, which triggers an infinite loop and file descriptor consumption. (CVSS:5.0) (Last Update:2008-11-15)

response.c in Lighttpd 1.4.10 and possibly previous versions, when run on Windows, allows remote attackers to read arbitrary source code via requests that contain trailing (1) “.” (dot) and (2) space characters, which are ignored by Windows, as demonstrated by PHP files. (CVSS:5.0) (Last Update:2008-09-05)

LightTPD 1.4.8 and earlier, when the web root is on a case-insensitive filesystem, allows remote attackers to bypass URL checks and obtain sensitive information via file extensions with unexpected capitalization, as demonstrated by a request for index.PHP when the configuration invokes the PHP interpreter only for “.php” names. (CVSS:2.6) (Last Update:2008-09-05)

The buffer_urldecode function in Lighttpd 1.3.7 and earlier does not properly handle control characters, which allows remote attackers to obtain the source code for CGI and FastCGI scripts via a URL with a %00 (null) character after the file extension. (CVSS:5.0) (Last Update:2008-09-05)
