In Apache httpd 2.0.23 to 2.0.65, 2.2.0 to 2.2.34, and 2.4.0 to 2.4.29, mod_authnz_ldap, if configured with AuthLDAPCharsetConfig, uses the Accept-Language header value to lookup the right charset encoding when verifying the user's credentials. If the header value is not present in the charset conversion table, a fallback mechanism is used to truncate it to a two characters value to allow a quick retry (for example, 'en-US' is truncated to 'en'). A header value of less than two characters forces an out of bound write of one NUL byte to a memory location that is not part of the string. In the worst case, quite unlikely, the process would crash which could be used as a Denial of Service attack. In the more likely case, this memory is already reserved for future use and the issue has no effect at all.

Title: Apache vulnerabilities
Summary: Several security issues were fixed in Apache.
USN-3937-1 and USN-3627-1 fixed several vulnerabilities in Apache.
This update provides the corresponding update for Ubuntu 12.04 ESM.
Original advisory details:
Simon Kappel discovered that the Apache HTTP Server mod_auth_digest module
incorrectly handled threads. A remote attacker with valid credentials could
possibly use this issue to authenticate using another username, bypassing
access control restrictions. (CVE-2019-0217)
Alex Nichols and Jakob Hirsch discovered that the Apache HTTP Server mod_authnz_ldap
module incorrectly handled missing charset encoding headers. A remote attacker
could possibly use this issue to cause the server to crash, resulting in a denial of
