Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the default error page of Apache 2.0 before 2.0.43, and 1.3.x up to 1.3.26, when UseCanonicalName is "Off" and support for wildcard DNS is present, allows remote attackers to execute script as other web page visitors via the Host: header, a different vulnerability than CAN-2002-1157.
Integer overflow in the approxysendfb function in proxy/proxyutil.c in modproxy in the Apache HTTP Server before 1.3.42 on 64-bit platforms allows remote origin servers to cause a denial of service (daemon crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via a large chunk size that triggers a heap-based buffer overflow.
The default installation of Apache before 1.3.19 allows remote attackers to list directories instead of the multiview index.html file via an HTTP request for a path that contains many / (slash) characters, which causes the path to be mishandled by (1) modnegotiation, (2) moddir, or (3) modautoindex.
Vulnerability in the modvhostalias virtual hosting module for Apache 1.3.9, 1.3.11 and 1.3.12 allows remote attackers to obtain the source code for CGI programs if the cgi-bin directory is under the document root.
modrewrite in Apache 1.3.12 and earlier allows remote attackers to read arbitrary files if a RewriteRule directive is expanded to include a filename whose name contains a regular expression.
The Apache 1.3.x HTTP server for Windows platforms allows remote attackers to list directory contents by requesting a URL containing a large number of / characters.
Apache before 1.3.24, when writing to the log file, records a spoofed hostname from the reverse lookup of an IP address, even when a double-reverse lookup fails, which allows remote attackers to hide the original source of activities.
PHP 4.3.4 and earlier in Apache 1.x and 2.x (modphp) can leak global variables between virtual hosts that are handled by the same Apache child process but have different settings, which could allow remote attackers to obtain sensitive information.
RMDG partner and independent security consultancy, "Context Information Security" has made CPNI Response aware of a security vulnerability which could potentially allow an attacker to gain full internal access to a network from the internet.
The technique exploits insecurely configured reverse web proxies to gain access to internal/DMZ systems.
This attack is based on an Apache web server which is using "modrewrite" to proxy web requests internally. Other proxies may suffer from this issue.
The vulnerability occurs if the Apache configuration file is configured like this:
RewriteRule ^(.) http://internalserver:80$1 [P]
As opposed to:
RewriteRule ^(.) http://internalserver:80/$1 [P]
It is important for readers to review their reverse proxy configurations to ensure that the rewrite rules are securely configured and cannot be abused in such a way that they can be used to compromise internal systems.
Buffer overflow in htdigest in Apache 1.3.26 and 1.3.27 may allow attackers to execute arbitrary code via a long user argument. NOTE: since htdigest is normally only locally accessible and not setuid or setgid, there are few attack vectors which would lead to an escalation of privileges, unless htdigest is executed from a CGI program. Therefore this may not be a vulnerability.
Cross site scripting vulnerabilities in Apache 1.3.0 through 1.3.11 allow remote attackers to execute script as other web site visitors via (1) the printenv CGI (printenv.pl), which does not encode its output, (2) pages generated by the apsenderrorresponse function such as a default 404, which does not add an explicit charset, or (3) various messages that are generated by certain Apache modules or core code. NOTE: the printenv issue might still exist for web browsers that can render text/plain content types as HTML, such as Internet Explorer, but CVE regards this as a design limitation of those browsers, not Apache. The printenv.pl/acuparam vector, discloser on 20070724, is one such variant.
Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the modimap module of Apache httpd before 1.3.35-dev and Apache httpd 2.0.x before 2.0.56-dev allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via the Referer when using image maps.
Additional problems were discovered in the httpd fix for CVE-2011-3368 - a reverse proxy bypass flaw - tracked via bug #740045. Upstream mailing list post identifies following request forms, which are not handled correctly:
GET @localhost::8880 HTTP/1.0\r\n\r\n GET qualys:@qqq.qq.qualys.com HTTP/1.0\r\n\r\n

Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in modstatus in the Apache HTTP Server 2.2.0 through 2.2.6, 2.0.35 through 2.0.61, and 1.3.2 through 1.3.39, when the server-status page is enabled, allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via unspecified vectors.
