It was possible to kill the web server by
sending an invalid request with a too long HTTP 1.1 header
(Accept-Encoding, Accept-Language, Accept-Range, Connection,
Expect, If-Match, If-None-Match, If-Range, If-Unmodified-Since,
Max-Forwards, TE, Host)

A cracker may exploit this vulnerability to make your web server
crash continually or even execute arbirtray code on your system.
