--------
  DeleGate contains a vulnerability that could cause memory to be 
  overwritten, resulting in pointer array overflow if a large number 
  of User-Agent: lines are described in the robot.txt file.

Problem Description:
-------------------
  When a client attempts to get a robot.txt file from a server site 
  through DeleGate, DeleGate adds some rules based on this file by 
  default, whenever it is run as HTTP-PROXY.

  Describing several lines of User-Agent: in the robots.txt file could  
  cause memory to be overwritten, thus resulting in pointer array 
  overflow.

  An attacker could potentially run codes of her choice through 
  exploitation.

  DeleGate 8.3.4 (UNIX)
  DeleGate 8.4.0 (Windows)
