| Thanks for the detailed report! The problem is the stat() here is failing after reading the directory. https://github.com/apache/httpd/blob/66254273e22a5b4051d15d7423b86a5d884b4ee5/modules/dav/fs/repos.c#L1613 We might be able to skip aborting the connection in the case of an ENOENT error here which seems reasonably harmless. Since the problem described in this bug report should be resolved in a recent advisory, it has been closed with a resolution of ERRATA. For information on the advisory (Moderate: httpd and mod_http2 security, bug fix, and enhancement update), and where to find the updated files, follow the link below. If the solution does not work for you, open a new bug report. https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2023:6403 | 
Description of problem: Concurrent DELETE and PROPFIND breaks PROPFIND. When executing DELETE and PROPFIND at the same time, PROPFIND may return an empty response.
