Description Mark J. Cox 2007-06-18 12:45:25 UTC

* Prevent a segmentation fault if one of the Cache-Control headers
  s-maxage, max-age, min-fresh, max-stale has no value assigned.
  In this case ignore s-maxage, max-age, min-fresh. For max-stale
  it is valid to set no value. In this case set max-stale to 1 year
  to signal that the client is accepting a stale response of any age.

This could be a DoS if a threaded MPM and mod_cache is used.
