mod_ntlm Apache Module Heap Overflow Vulnerability
The mod_ntlm Apache module has been reported prone to a heap overflow vulnerability. The vulnerability occurs due to a lack of sufficient bounds checking performed on user-supplied data, stored in heap memory. By supplying excessive data an attacker may trigger a buffer overflow and corrupt crucial memory management structures. This may result in the execution of arbitrary code in the context of the Apache server.
Mitigation:
Ensure that mod_ntlm is not installed and configured on the Apache server. If it is, upgrade to the latest version.
