CVE-2005-1344 is a vulnerability of currently unknown severity. Buffer overflow in htdigest in Apache 2.0.52 may allow attackers to execute arbitrary code via a long realm argument. NOTE: since htdigest is normally only locally accessible and not setuid or setgid, there are few attack vectors which would lead to an escalation of privileges, unless htdigest is executed from a CGI program. EPSS estimates a 29.10% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
