The configuration merger in itk.c in the Steinar H. Gunderson mpm-itk
Multi-Processing Module 2.2.11-01 and 2.2.11-02 for the Apache HTTP Server
does not properly handle certain configuration sections that specify
NiceValue but not AssignUserID, which might allow remote attackers to gain
privileges by leveraging the root uid and root gid of an mpm-itk process.
