Apache mod_include Local Buffer Overflow Vulnerability

The problem presents itself when the affected module attempts to parse mod_include-specific tag values. A failure to properly validate the lengths of user-supplied tag strings before copying them into finite buffers facilitates the overflow.

A local attacker may leverage this issue to execute arbitrary code on the affected computer with the privileges of the affected Apache server.
