Positive Technologies (AI Summary)

CVSS v2.0

7.5

High

Base vector

AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions: Apache version 2.0.52

Description: A buffer overflow issue exists in the htdigest utility of Apache, potentially allowing attackers to execute arbitrary code through a long realm argument. However, since htdigest is typically only accessible locally and not setuid or setgid, there are limited attack vectors that could lead to privilege escalation, unless htdigest is executed from a CGI program.

Recommendations: For Apache version 2.0.52, consider restricting access to the htdigest utility to minimize potential risks, especially if it is executed from a CGI program. At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this issue.
