Summary

IBM Security SiteProtector System has addressed the following vulnerabilities in Apache HTTP Server.

Vulnerability Details

CVEID: CVE-2018-11759
DESCRIPTION: Apache Tomcat JK mod_jk Connector could allow a remote attacker to traverse directories on the system, caused by the improper handling of some edge cases by the Apache Web Server (httpd) specific code. An attacker could send a specially-crafted URL request to bypass the access controls configured in httpd and obtain sensitive information.
CVSS Base Score: 6.5
CVSS Temporal Score: See https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/152354 for the current score
CVSS Environmental Score*: Undefined
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:N)

CVEID:  CVE-2017-12613
DESCRIPTION:  Apache Portable Runtime APR could allow a remote attacker to obtain sensitive information, caused by an out-of-bounds array dereference in apr_time_exp*() functions. By using an invalid month field value, a remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability to obtain sensitive information or cause a denial of service.
CVSS Base Score: 9.1
CVSS Temporal Score: See https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/134049 for the current score
CVSS Environmental Score*: Undefined
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:H)

C VEID:  CVE-2017-12618
DESCRIPTION:  Apache Portable Runtime Utility (APR-util)is vulnerable to a denial of service, caused by failing to validate the integrity of SDBM database files used by apr_sdbm*() functions. By making a specially-crafted program or process, a local authenticated attacker could exploit this vulnerability to cause the application to crash.
CVSS Base Score: 5.5
CVSS Temporal Score: See https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/134048 for the current score
CVSS Environmental Score*: Undefined
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H)

CVEID:  CVE-2017-15710
DESCRIPTION:  Apache HTTPD is vulnerable to a denial of service, caused by an out-of-bounds memory write error. By sending a specially crafted Accept-Language header value, an attacker could exploit this vulnerability to cause the service to crash.
CVSS Base Score: 5.3
CVSS Temporal Score: See https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/140858 for the current score
CVSS Environmental Score*: Undefined
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:L)

CVEID:  CVE-2017-15715
DESCRIPTION:  Apache HTTPD could allow a remote attacker to bypass security restrictions, caused by the '' expression matching ' to a newline character in a malicious filename instead of the end of the filename. By matching the trailing portion of the filename, an attacker could exploit to bypass security controls that use the '' directive.
CVSS Base Score: 3.7
CVSS Temporal Score: See https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/140857 for the current score
CVSS Environmental Score*: Undefined
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:N)

CVEID:  CVE-2018-1301
DESCRIPTION:  Apache HTTPD is vulnerable to a denial of service, caused by an out-of-bounds access error after a header size limit has been reached reading the HTTP header. By sending a specially crafted HTTP request, an attacker could exploit this vulnerability to cause the service to crash.
