+ <p>Chris Ries discovered that nginx, a high-performance HTTP server,
+ reverse proxy and IMAP/POP3 proxy server, is vulnerable to a buffer
+ underflow when processing certain HTTP requests. An attacker can
+ use this to execute arbitrary code with the rights of the worker
+ process or possibly perform denial of service attacks by repeatedly
+ crashing worker processes via a specially crafted URL in an HTTP
+ request.</p>
