Format string vulnerability in Xitami Web Server 2.2a through 2.5c2, and possibly other versions, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (daemon crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via format string specifiers in a Long Running Web Process (LRWP) request, which triggers incorrect logging code involving the sendfmt function in the SMT kernel.

Security readout for executives and security teams

This is an old Xitami Web Server flaw where a crafted LRWP request can crash the web daemon and may allow arbitrary code execution. The sources identify Xitami 2.2a through 2.5c2, with other versions uncertain. No KEV listing or cited active exploitation evidence is provided. Exposure is most likely on legacy systems still running Xitami Web Server 2.2a through 2.5c2, especially where LRWP handling is reachable. The source bundle does not provide CPEs, deployment prevalence, or confirmation for versions outside that range. Treat this as a legacy exposure cleanup item with high potential impact if Xitami remains reachable. Prioritize internet-facing or business-critical hosts first. Urgency is lower if no Xitami deployment exists, but evidence is incomplete without asset validation. Mitigation focus: Inventory systems for Xitami Web Server 2.2a through 2.5c2.; Remove or replace unsupported Xitami deployments where possible.; Restrict access to Xitami and LRWP interfaces to trusted networks only..
