Robert Swiecki discovered that the Apache HTTP Server mod_auth_digest module incorrectly cleared values when processing certain requests. A remote attacker could use this issue to cause the server to crash, resulting in a denial or service, or possibly obtain sensitive information.

Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Ubuntu security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.
