Package : apache2
Version : 2.4.25-3+deb9u11
CVE ID : CVE-2021-34798 CVE-2021-39275 CVE-2021-40438

Several vulnerabilities were discovered in the Apache HTTP server.
An attacker could send proxied requests to arbitrary servers, corrupt
memory in some setups involving third-party modules, and cause the
server to crash.

CVE-2021-34798

Malformed requests may cause the server to dereference
a NULL pointer.

CVE-2021-39275

ap_escape_quotes() may write beyond the end of a buffer when given
malicious input. No included modules pass untrusted data to these
functions, but third-party / external modules may.

CVE-2021-40438

A crafted request uri-path can cause mod_proxy to forward the
request to an origin server choosen by the remote user.

For Debian 9 stretch, these problems have been fixed in version
2.4.25-3+deb9u11.

We recommend that you upgrade your apache2 packages.
