The version of IBM HTTP Server running on the remote host is affected by multiple vulnerabilities, as follows:

  • Race condition in the mod_status module in the Apache HTTP Server before 2.4.10 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (heap-based buffer overflow), or possibly obtain sensitive credential information or execute arbitrary code, via a crafted request that triggers improper scoreboard handling within the status_handler function in modules/generators/mod_status.c and the lua_ap_scoreboard_worker function in modules/lua/lua_request.c. (CVE-2014-0226)

  • The mod_cgid module in the Apache HTTP Server before 2.4.10 does not have a timeout mechanism, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (process hang) via a request to a CGI script that does not read from its stdin file descriptor. (CVE-2014-0231)

  • The deflate_in_filter function in mod_deflate.c in the mod_deflate module in the Apache HTTP Server before 2.4.10, when request body decompression is enabled, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (resource consumption) via crafted request data that decompresses to a much larger size. (CVE-2014-0118)

  • The mod_headers module in the Apache HTTP Server 2.2.22 allows remote attackers to bypass ‘RequestHeader unset’ directives by placing a header in the trailer portion of data sent with chunked transfer coding.
    NOTE: the vendor states ‘this is not a security issue in httpd as such.’ (CVE-2013-5704)

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.
