MacOS Personal Wed Sharing DoS

[Jass Seljamaa <jass () email isp ee>]

Hello bugtraq readers and Apple Inc.

The problem this time is that when File Sharing is set to check PWS 
logins, on a about 300char password the system freezes. This problem 
could be bigger, cause Macintosh File sharing passwords cannot be 
longer than 8 chars and many apps support File Sharing to controls 
logins, ie the same users that are set  in FS control panel can access the 
specified service.  I have tested it on a PPC 9500, OS 9.1z1, PWS v. 1.5.5. I 
have not had the tme to test it with any other server apps which have File 
Sharing control-access. If anyone has one nearby and will test it let me 
know.
