Dear Slotto Corleone,

--Friday, April 30, 2004, 3:43:15 AM, you wrote to full-disclosure@lists.netsys.com:

SC> sprintf(filename,"%s%s",config->webroot,request); <-- oops

According to information you provided this is stack overflow, not heap.
And in this very case it looks not to be exploitable, because behind
filename boundaries sprintf() overwrites beginning of auth_buf. Of cause
I may be wrong, full annalists of source code required to make
conclusion.
