I reread this one a few times, I'm not clear on what:
==========
printf 'GET
/cgi-bin/munin-cgi-graph/localdomain/localhost.localdomain/vmstat-day.png?foo
HTTP/1.0\r\nHost: localhost\r\nConnection: close\r\n\r\n' | nc
localhost 80
Provided that the filename actually exists, munin will render the image
==========
means exactly, does the file vmstat-day.png need to exist where? It
seems like if the image is of any size (say 20k or more) the
amplification (each get request = 20k of tmp space usage) and the
files have to be deleted manually it might qualify as a DoS.
helmut@...divi.de can you shed more light on this?
