Sun Java System Web Proxy Server is prone to a heap-based buffer-overflow vulnerability because the application fails to bounds-check user-supplied data before copying it into an insufficiently sized buffer.

An attacker can exploit this issue to execute arbitrary code in the context of the application. Failed exploit attempts will likely result in a denial-of-service condition.

This issue affects Sun Java System Web Proxy Server 4.0 up to and including 4.0.7.
