Description

This security bulletin contains information about 5 vulnerabilities.


1) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2025-66200)

CWE-ID: CWE-20 - Improper input validation

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:N/VI:L/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear


The vulnerability allows a local user to bypass implemented security restrictions.

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input when parsing the RequestHeader directive in .htaccess files. A local user can bypass mod_userdir+suexec security measures via AllowOverride FileInfo and run certain CGI scripts under an unexpected userid.


2) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2025-59375)

CWE-ID: CWE-400 - Resource exhaustion

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green


The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to application does not properly control consumption of internal resources. A remote attacker can trigger large dynamic memory allocations via a small document and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


3) Code injection (CVE-ID: CVE-2025-65082)

CWE-ID: CWE-74 - Improper Neutralization of Special Elements in Output Used by a Downstream Component ('Injection')

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:H/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:N/VI:L/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear


The vulnerability allows a local user to affect web server behavior. 

The vulnerability exists due to improper input validation when handling environment variables set via the Apache configuration. A local user can set specially crafted values that supersede variables calculated by the server for CGI programs.


4) Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) (CVE-ID: CVE-2025-59775)

CWE-ID: CWE-918 - Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF)

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:N/UI:N/VC:L/VI:N/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green


The disclosed vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform SSRF attacks.

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input when AllowEncodedSlashes is "On" and MergeSlashes is "Off". A remote attacker can send a specially crafted HTTP request and force the web server into leaking NTLM hashes. 

Note, the vulnerability affects Windows installations only. 


5) Improper Neutralization of Server-Side Includes (SSI) Within a Web Page (CVE-ID: CVE-2025-58098)

CWE-ID: CWE-97 - Improper Neutralization of Server-Side Includes (SSI) Within a Web Page

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:H/AT:P/PR:N/UI:N/VC:L/VI:L/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:P/U:Clear


The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary commands.

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient input validation with Server Side Includes (SSI) enabled and mod_cgid (but not mod_cgi). The web server passes the shell-escaped query string to #exec cmd="..." directives. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted HTTP request to the server and potentially execute arbitrary code.
