Heap-based Buffer Overflow vulnerability in Apache HTTP Server with mod_xml2enc, xml2StartParse, and untrusted content

This issue affects Apache HTTP Server: from 2.4.0 through 2.4.67.

Users are recommended to upgrade to version 2.4.68, which fixes the issue.

AnalysisAI

Denial of service in Apache HTTP Server 2.4.0 through 2.4.67 allows remote unauthenticated attackers to crash the server by submitting untrusted XML content processed by the mod_xml2enc module's xml2StartParse function. The flaw is a CWE-122 heap-based buffer overflow with a CVSS 7.5 score reflecting high availability impact only, and no public exploit has been identified at time of analysis.

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Exploitation requires the target Apache HTTP Server (2.4.0-2.4.67) to have the mod_xml2enc module loaded and to process untrusted XML content through the xml2StartParse code path - typically meaning the server is acting as a reverse proxy or output filter for XML/XHTML responses (commonly paired with mod_proxy_html). … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The CVSS 3.1 vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H) indicates a network-reachable, low-complexity, unauthenticated path with availability-only impact - i.e., a remote crash/DoS rather than code execution, despite the heap-overflow primitive class. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario A remote attacker sends an HTTP request that causes the Apache server to fetch or generate XML content which is then passed through the mod_xml2enc filter; the crafted XML triggers the heap overflow in xml2StartParse and crashes the worker process. Repeating the request causes sustained denial of service against the web service. …
Remediation Vendor-released patch: Apache HTTP Server 2.4.68 - upgrade from any 2.4.0-2.4.67 installation per https://httpd.apache.org/security/vulnerabilities_24.html. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.
