The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-200608-01 (Apache: Off-by-one flaw in mod_rewrite)
An off-by-one flaw has been found in Apache's mod_rewrite module by Mark Dowd of McAfee Avert Labs. This flaw is exploitable depending on the types of rewrite rules being used.
Impact :
A remote attacker could exploit the flaw to cause a Denial of Service or execution of arbitrary code. Note that Gentoo Linux is not vulnerable in the default configuration.
Workaround :
There is no known workaround at this time.
