CVE-2002-2428
webs.c in GoAhead WebServer before 2.1.4 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and daemon crash) via an HTTP POST request that contains a Content-Length header but no body data.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (1.64%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
