Hello,
We detect memleak in apache2 with mod_rewrite
steps for repeat:
create directory structure
.
└── categories
└── test
└── .htaccess
cat ./categories/.htaccess
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /categories/
RewriteRule "^(.*)\ (.*)$" "$1-$2" [R=301,N,QSA]
after it sent request to apache
curl -H "Host: example.com"
http://127.0.0.1/categories/test/%3C/a%20href=
apache eating all memory and we got this in strace output
lstat("/var/www/html/example.com/categories/test",
{st_mode=S_IFDIR|0755, st_size=4096, ...}) = 0
open("/var/www/html/example.com/categories/test/.htaccess",
O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
lstat("/var/www/html/example.com/categories/test/<", 0x7f7c0d7e9aa0) =
-1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)

mmap(NULL, 8192, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0)

Please could you clarify is it bug or feature?
This memleak is not good for shared hosting.
