Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.107963
Category:Web Servers
Title:Apache HTTP Server 1.2.2 - 1.3.24 / 2.0 - 2.0.36 DoS Vulnerability - Linux
Summary:Apache HTTP Server is prone to a denial of service (DoS) vulnerability.
Description:Summary:
Apache HTTP Server is prone to a denial of service (DoS) vulnerability.

Vulnerability Insight:
There is a remotely exploitable vulnerability in the way that Apache
web servers (or other web servers based on their source code) handle data encoded in chunks. This
vulnerability is present by default in configurations of Apache web server. The impact of this
vulnerability is dependent upon the software version and the hardware platform the server is running on.

Vulnerability Impact:
For Apache versions 1.2.2 through 1.3.24 inclusive, this vulnerability
may allow the execution of arbitrary code by remote attackers. Exploits are publicly available that claim
to allow the execution of arbitrary code.

For Apache versions 2.0 through 2.0.36 inclusive, the condition causing the vulnerability is correctly
detected and causes the child process to exit. Depending on a variety of factors, including the threading
model supported by the vulnerable system, this may lead to a denial-of-service attack against the Apache
web server.

Affected Software/OS:
Apache HTTP Server version 1.2.2 and above, 1.3 through 1.3.24, and versions
2.0 through 2.0.36.

Solution:
Update to version 1.3.26, 2.0.39 or later.

CVSS Score:
7.5
