5.0 MEDIUM — AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:P

Description

The ap_proxy_ajp_request function in mod_proxy_ajp.c in mod_proxy_ajp in the Apache HTTP Server 2.2.x before 2.2.15 does not properly handle certain situations in which a client sends no request body, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (backend server outage) via a crafted request, related to use of a 500 error code instead of the appropriate 400 error code.

Affected configurations

• apache http server 2.2 • apache http server 2.2.0 • apache http server 2.2.2 • apache http server 2.2.3 • apache http server 2.2.4 • apache http server 2.2.6 • apache http server 2.2.8 • apache http server 2.2.9 • apache http server 2.2.11 • apache http server 2.2.12 • apache http server 2.2.13 • apache http server 2.2.14
