Objet: [sec-adv] Apache Type-Map Handler Denial of Service Vulnerability
TITLE: Apache Type-Map Handler Denial of Service Vulnerability
READ ONLINE: http://www.secunia.com/advisories/9217/
CRITICAL: Not critical
IMPACT: DoS
WHERE: Local system
SOFTWARE: Apache 2.0.x
DESCRIPTION: A vulnerability has been reported in Apache HTTP Server, which can be exploited by malicious, local users to cause a DoS (Denial of Service) on a vulnerable web server.
The vulnerability is caused due to an error in the type-map handler when parsing type maps. By specifying a specially crafted file, a malicious user can cause the web server to enter an infinite loop resulting in a DoS.
The vulnerability has been reported in versions 2.0.43 to 2.0.46. However, prior versions may also be affected.
SOLUTION: Only trusted people should be granted access to systems.
Reportedly, this will be fixed in an upcoming version 2.0.47: http://httpd.apache.org/
