DATE CVE VULNERABILITY TITLE RISK
2013-11-20 CVE-2013-4559 Permissions, Privileges, and Access Controls vulnerability in multiple products
lighttpd before 1.4.33 does not check the return value of the (1) setuid, (2) setgid, or (3) setgroups functions, which might cause lighttpd to run as root if it is restarted and allows remote attackers to gain privileges, as demonstrated by multiple calls to the clone function that cause setuid to fail when the user process limit is reached.

7.6
2013-11-08 CVE-2013-4508 Inadequate Encryption Strength vulnerability in multiple products
lighttpd before 1.4.34, when SNI is enabled, configures weak SSL ciphers, which makes it easier for remote attackers to hijack sessions by inserting packets into the client-server data stream or obtain sensitive information by sniffing the network.
4.3
2013-03-21 CVE-2013-1427 Cryptographic Issues vulnerability in Lighttpd
The configuration file for the FastCGI PHP support for lighttpd before 1.4.28 on Debian GNU/Linux creates a socket file with a predictable name in /tmp, which allows local users to hijack the PHP control socket and perform unauthorized actions such as forcing the use of a different version of PHP via a symlink attack or a race condition.
1.9
2012-11-24 CVE-2012-5533 Resource Management Errors vulnerability in Lighttpd 1.4.31/1.4.32
The http_request_split_value function in request.c in lighttpd before 1.4.32 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (infinite loop) via a request with a header containing an empty token, as demonstrated using the "Connection: TE,,Keep-Alive" header.

5.0
2011-12-24 CVE-2011-4362 Integer signedness error in the base64_decode function in the HTTP authentication functionality (http_auth.c) in lighttpd 1.4 before 1.4.30 and 1.5 before SVN revision 2806 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (segmentation fault) via crafted base64 input that triggers an out-of-bounds read with a negative index.

2010-02-03 CVE-2010-0295 Resource Management Errors vulnerability in Lighttpd
lighttpd before 1.4.26, and 1.5.x, allocates a buffer for each read operation that occurs for a request, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) by breaking a request into small pieces that are sent at a slow rate.

5.0
2008-10-03 CVE-2008-4360 Information Exposure vulnerability in multiple products
mod_userdir in lighttpd before 1.4.20, when a case-insensitive operating system or filesystem is used, performs case-sensitive comparisons on filename components in configuration options, which might allow remote attackers to bypass intended access restrictions, as demonstrated by a request for a .PHP file when there is a configuration rule for .php files.

lighttpd debian CWE-200
7.5
2008-10-03 CVE-2008-4359 Information Exposure vulnerability in multiple products
lighttpd before 1.4.20 compares URIs to patterns in the (1) url.redirect and (2) url.rewrite configuration settings before performing URL decoding, which might allow remote attackers to bypass intended access restrictions, and obtain sensitive information or possibly modify data.

2008-09-27 CVE-2008-4298 Resource Management Errors vulnerability in Lighttpd
Memory leak in the http_request_parse function in request.c in lighttpd before 1.4.20 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) via a large number of requests with duplicate request headers.

5.0
2008-03-27 CVE-2008-1531 Denial of Service vulnerability in Lighttpd SSL Error
The connection_state_machine function (connections.c) in lighttpd 1.4.19 and earlier, and 1.5.x before 1.5.0, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (active SSL connection loss) by triggering an SSL error, such as disconnecting before a download has finished, which causes all active SSL connections to be lost.
