Severity:	Remote user may access protected files

Fixed:		NetBSD-current:		July 8th, 2014
		NetBSD-6 branch:	July 10th, 2014
		NetBSD-6-1 branch:	July 10th, 2014

Please note that NetBSD releases prior to 5.1 are no longer supported.
It is recommended that all users upgrade to a supported release.


Abstract
========

When checking for restricted access via .htpasswd files, bozohttpd
fails to properly check for truncation, allowing specially crafted
requests to bypass access control without a password.  Files of
length 10 or more are not affected.


Technical Details
=================

A call to snprintf() was not properly checking for truncation of
a provided user path, allowing a later concatenation of the
".htpasswd" file name to exceed the maximum pathname length.  This
stops the check for .htpasswd file from working correctly, bypassing
the basic HTTP authentication scheme.  Files with names longer than
".htpasswd" are not visible as they require at least enough for a
valid path to be available.


Solutions and Workarounds
=========================

This problem only affects users of .htpasswd files.  The simplest
fix is to install the latest pkgsrc bozohttpd which fixes this
problem (and use it instead of the system httpd).

Alternatively, to fetch a fitting base.tgz from the releng builds
and install a fixed httpd from there:

cd /var/tmp
ftp http://nyftp.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD-daily/<rel>/<build>/<arch>/binary/sets/base.tgz
cd /
tar xzpf /var/tmp/base.tgz ./usr/libexec/httpd

with the following replacements:
<rel>   = the release version you are using
<build> = the source date of the build. 20140710* and later will fit
<arch>  = your system's architecture

The following instructions describe how to upgrade your bozohttpd
binaries by updating your source tree and rebuilding and
installing a new version of bozohttpd.
