Description Joe Orton 2003-11-19 16:07:17 UTC

CAN-2003-0542 affects 2.0.46
                                                                     
                                                 
Description:
Multiple stack-based buffer overflows in (1) mod_alias and (2)
mod_rewrite for Apache before 2.0.48 allow attackers to can create
configuration files to cause a denial of service (crash) or execute
arbitrary code via a regular expression with more than 9 captures.
                                                                     
                                                 
Version:
This issue affects the apache package shipped with all variants of Red
Hat Enterprise Linux 3.
