Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Privoxy versions prior to 3.0.29
Description A flaw in Privoxy can cause memory leaks when a response is buffered and the buffer limit is reached or Privoxy is running out of memory, leading to a system crash.
Recommendations For versions prior to 3.0.29, update to version 3.0.29 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider configuring Privoxy to handle memory allocation more efficiently or restricting the buffer limit to minimize the risk of exploitation.
