A GET request containing over 4080 characters will cause the httpd.exe process to crash within Netscape Enterprise Server 3.6, resulting in a Dr. Watson error. Arbitrary code can be executed remotely at this point. 

Netscape Enterprise Server 3.5 running on either Netware or Solaris is not known to be susceptible to this issue.
