Summary
Simple Web Server (SWS) 0.0.4 through 0.1.0 does not properly handle when the recv function call fails, which may allow remote attackers to overwrite program data or perform actions on an uninitialized heap, leading to a denial of service and possibly code execution.
Exploit prediction
2.66% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days, higher than 85% of all scored CVEs (FIRST EPSS, 2026-11-08).
