Description

The read_request_line function in server/protocol.c in the Apache HTTP Server 2.4.12 does not initialize the protocol structure member, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and process crash) by sending a request that lacks a method to an installation that enables the INCLUDES filter and has an ErrorDocument 400 directive specifying a local URI.

Affected configurations

• apache http server 2.4.12 • apple mac os x 10.10.4 • apple mac os x server 5.0.3 • oracle linux 7 • oracle solaris 11.3
