"The CentOS Linux 6 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the
TuxCare CENTOS6:CLSA-2026:1778152899 advisory.

  - In Apache httpd 2.0.23 to 2.0.65, 2.2.0 to 2.2.34, and 2.4.0 to 2.4.29, mod_authnz_ldap, if configured
    with AuthLDAPCharsetConfig, uses the Accept-Language header value to lookup the right charset encoding
    when verifying the user's credentials. If the header value is not present in the charset conversion table,
    a fallback mechanism is used to truncate it to a two characters value to allow a quick retry (for example,
    'en-US' is truncated to 'en'). A header value of less than two characters forces an out of bound write of
    one NUL byte to a memory location that is not part of the string. In the worst case, quite unlikely, the
    process would crash which could be used as a Denial of Service attack. In the more likely case, this
    memory is already reserved for future use and the issue has no effect at all. (CVE-2017-15710)

  - In Apache httpd 2.4.0 to 2.4.29, the expression specified in <FilesMatch> could match '$' to a newline
    character in a malicious filename, rather than matching only the end of the filename. This could be
    exploited in environments where uploads of some files are are externally blocked, but only by matching the
    trailing portion of the filename. (CVE-2017-15715)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
number.");
