In Apache HTTP Server, with MPM event, worker or prefork, code executing in
less-privileged child processes or threads (including scripts executed by an in-process scripting interpreter)
could execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the parent process (usually root) by manipulating the
scoreboard. Non-Unix systems are not affected.
