K15899 : Multiple Apache vulnerabilities CVE-2012-4558, CVE-2012-0883, CVE-2011-3348, and CVE-2010-1452

Security Advisory Description

CVE-2010-1452

The (1) mod_cache and (2) mod_dav modules in the Apache HTTP Server 2.2.x before 2.2.16 allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (process crash) via a request that lacks a path.

CVE-2011-3348

The mod_proxy_ajp module in the Apache HTTP Server before 2.2.21, when used with mod_proxy_balancer in certain configurations, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (temporary “error state” in the backend server) via a malformed HTTP request.

CVE-2012-0883

envvars (aka envvars-std) in the Apache HTTP Server before 2.4.2 places a zero-length directory name in the LD_LIBRARY_PATH, which allows local users to gain privileges via a Trojan horse DSO in the current working directory during execution of apachectl.

CVE-2012-4558

Multiple cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities in the balancer_handler function in the manager interface in mod_proxy_balancer.c in the mod_proxy_balancer module in the Apache HTTP Server 2.2.x before 2.2.24-dev and 2.4.x before 2.4.4 allow remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via a crafted string.

Impact

An attacker may be able to gain sensitive information or cause the** httpd** process to stop responding, using a specially crafted script or HTTP request.
