Doc Text:
An integer overflow flaw has been discovered in Tinyproxy. Tinyproxy parses the port variable with `sscanf (ptr1, "%d", &port)` and doesn't check ranges. This use of `sscanf` is vulnerable to integer overflow: if you send a port like `5000 + 2**32 = 4294972296`, it overflows and wraps back to 5000. This flaw may allow an attacker to bypass blocking logic which would otherwise prevent a port from being accessible.
