Description OSIDB Bzimport 2026-10-01 23:10:39 UTC 
Missing authentication checks in mod_auth_digest in Apache Software Foundation Apache HTTP Server before 2.4.69 on all platforms allows an unauthenticated remote client to cause a denial of service (forced re-authentication) via forged Authorization headers when Digest authentication is enabled with AuthDigestNcCheck .

Users are recommended to upgrade to version 2.4.69, which fixes this issue.
