Description Mark J. Cox 2005-10-25 12:24:25 UTC
Multiple flaws in Stronghold 4.0 mod_ssl

A stack buffer overflow in mod_ssl. If FakeBasicAuth had been enabled, a
carefully crafted client certificate sent to mod_ssl can cause a stack
overflow. In order to exploit this issue, the malicious certificate would
have to be signed by a Certificate Authority which mod_ssl is configured to
trust. (CVE-2004-0488)

The mod_ssl module, when using the "SSLCipherSuite" directive in directory
or location context, allowed remote clients to bypass intended restrictions
by using any cipher suite that is allowed by the virtual host
configuration. (CVE-2004-0885)

A flaw in mod_ssl triggered if a virtual host was configured using
"SSLVerifyClient optional" and a directive "SSLVerifyClient required" is
set for a specific location. For servers configured in this fashion, an
attacker may be able to access resources that should otherwise be
protected. (CVE-2005-2700)
