Apache mod_cookies Buffer Overflow Vulnerability
The Apache Project is a collaborative software development effort aimed at creating a robust, commercial-grade, featureful, and freely-available source code implementation of an HTTP (Web) server. Certain versions of the Apache webserver shipped with a remotely exploitable buffer overflow attack. This overflow was present in the function make_cookie, in mod_cookies.c used a 100 byte buffer. Remote attackers, if they provided more than 100 bytes, could exploit this vulnerabiltity to gain access to the server running the Apache server. |
