Descriptions

In Apache HTTP Server 2.4.32-2.4.39, when mod_remoteip was configured to use a trusted intermediary proxy server using the "PROXY" protocol, a specially crafted PROXY header could trigger a stack buffer overflow or NULL pointer deference. This vulnerability could only be triggered by a trusted proxy and not by untrusted HTTP clients.

En Apache HTTP Server versiones 2.4.32 hasta 2.4.39, cuando mod_remoteip se configuró para usar un servidor proxy intermediario de confianza que utiliza el protocolo "PROXY", un encabezado PROXY especialmente diseñado podría desencadenar un desbordamiento del búfer de la pila o una deferencia del puntero NULL. Esta vulnerabilidad solo puede ser activada por un proxy confiable y no por clientes HTTP no confiables.

A vulnerability was discovered in Apache httpd, in mod_remoteip. A trusted proxy using the "PROXY" protocol could send specially crafted headers that can cause httpd to experience a stack buffer overflow or NULL pointer dereference, leading to a crash or other potential consequences. This issue could only be exploited by configured trusted intermediate proxy servers. HTTP clients such as browsers could not exploit the vulnerability.
