- →Attack vector is an HTTP request with an abnormally large 'Range' header field, triggering memory exhaustion in Apache's byte-range filter handler ↗
- →Monitor for HTTP requests containing oversized Range headers targeting Apache 2.0 servers prior to version 2.0.54 ↗
- ·Only Apache 2.0 versions prior to 2.0.54 are vulnerable; the byte-range filter was the specific component affected ↗

CVE-2005-2728 Apache 2 vulnerabilities
Title: Apache 2 vulnerabilities
Summary: Apache 2 vulnerabilities
Apache did not honour the "SSLVerifyClient require" directive within a
block if the surrounding block contained a
directive "SSLVerifyClient optional". This allowed clients to bypass
client certificate validation on servers with the above configuration.
(CAN-2005-2700)
Filip Sneppe discovered a Denial of Service vulnerability in the byte
range filter handler. By requesting certain large byte ranges, a
remote attacker could cause memory exhaustion in the server.
(CAN-2005-2728)
The updated libapache-mod-ssl also fixes two older Denial of Service
vulnerabilities: A format string error in the ssl_log() function which
could be exploited to crash the server (CAN-2004-0700), and a flaw in
the SSL cipher negotiation which could
