Multiple vulnerabilities have been identified in IBM Lotus Domino, which could be exploited by remote attackers to cause a denial of service, or execute arbitrary commands or scripting code.

The first issue is caused by a buffer overflow error in the Web Server service when processing HTTP requests containing an overly long "Accept-Language" header, which could be exploited by remote unauthenticated attackers to crash or compromise an affected server.

The second vulnerability is caused by input validation errors in the servlet engine/Web container, which could be exploited by attackers to cause arbitrary scripting code to be executed by the user's browser in the security context of an affected Web site.
