Description:
A security issue has been reported in BRS WebWeaver, which can be exploited by malicious people to make HTTP requests without the IP address being logged.
BRS WebWeaver fails to log the IP address of HTTP requests with a long hostname. This will cause the server to return an error page. However, if this is used in combination with other attacks, it may hide the identity of the attacker.
The issue has been reported in version 1.06.
Solution:
Update to version 1.25 or later.
