A flaw was found in BusyBox. When the httpd web server processes subdirectory configuration files, an overly long index page name can trigger a stack-based buffer overflow. An attacker with permissions to write to a subdirectory configuration file could exploit this vulnerability to execute arbitrary code with elevated privileges or cause a denial of service (DoS) by crashing the server process.
