CVE-2012-3499 [MEDIUM] Apache HTTP Server vulnerabilities
Title: Apache HTTP Server vulnerabilities
Summary: Several security issues were fixed in the Apache HTTP Server.
Niels Heinen discovered that multiple modules incorrectly sanitized certain
strings, which could result in browsers becoming vulnerable to cross-site
scripting attacks when processing the output. With cross-site scripting
vulnerabilities, if a user were tricked into viewing server output during a
crafted server request, a remote attacker could exploit this to modify the
contents, or steal confidential data (such as passwords), within the same
domain. (CVE-2012-3499, CVE-2012-4558)
It was discovered that the mod_proxy_ajp module incorrectly handled error
states. A remote attacker could use this issue to cause the server to stop
responding, resulting in a denial of service. Thi
