2. The bugs:
-------------

The program doesn't well manage the received strings on the TCP ports:
[1] 1080 and [2] 8080. In fact it will have a buffer overflow.

To test the vulnerability simply send to the server ( port 1080 ) a
string like:

GET aaaa[ 1113 of a ]aaaa

( port 8080 ) a string like:
