CVSS v2.0
7.8
High
| Vector | AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:C |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Apache HTTP Server versions 2.4.52 and earlier
Description
The issue is related to insufficient input validation in the Apache HTTP Server, which can be exploited by a remote attacker to cause a denial of service (DoS) by sending specially crafted data to the application. A carefully crafted request body can cause a read to a random memory area, potentially leading to a process crash.
Recommendations
For Apache HTTP Server versions 2.4.52 and earlier, update to version 2.4.53 to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the vulnerable
r:parsebody function until a patch is available. Avoid using specially crafted request bodies in the affected API endpoints until the issue is resolved.Exploit
