An Uncontrolled Resource Consumption vulnerability in multiple products may allow an attacker to cause web service portal denial of service (DoS) via handling special crafted HTTP requests/responses in pieces slowly. Slow HTTP attacks are denial-of-service (DoS) attacks in which the attacker sends HTTP requests in pieces slowly, one at a time to a Web server. If an HTTP request is not complete, or if the transfer rate is very low, the server keeps its resources busy waiting for the rest of the data. When the server’s concurrent connection pool reaches its maximum, this creates a DoS. Slow HTTP attacks are easy to execute because they require only minimal resources from the attacker.

Martin Joey Schulze discovered a flaw in the way modauthmysql handles certain multibyte character encodings.

If modauthmysql is configured to use use a multibyte character set that allows the backslash '\' character as part of the character encodings, it is possible to inject arbitrary SQL commands to the MySQL database server.

The modssl module in Apache 2.0.35 through 2.0.52, when using the "SSLCipherSuite" directive in directory or location context, allows remote clients to bypass intended restrictions by using any cipher suite that is allowed by the virtual host configuration.

Multiple stack-based buffer overflows in (1) modalias and (2) modrewrite for Apache before 1.3.29 allow attackers to create configuration files to cause a denial of service (crash) or execute arbitrary code via a regular expression with more than 9 captures.

Apache before 2.0.44, when running on unpatched Windows 9x and Me operating systems, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service or execute arbitrary code via an HTTP request containing MS-DOS device names.
