Vulnerability risk: Medium
CVSSv4.0: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:L/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green
CVE-ID: CVE-2013-1896
CWE-ID: CWE-264
Exploitation vector: Remote access
Exploit availability: No public exploit available
Vulnerable software:
Apache HTTP Server
Software vendor:
Apache Foundation

Description

The vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to perform service disruption.

mod_dav.c in the Apache HTTP Server before 2.2.25 does not properly determine whether DAV is enabled for a URI, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (segmentation fault) via a MERGE request in which the URI is configured for handling by the mod_dav_svn module, but a certain href attribute in XML data refers to a non-DAV URI.


Remediation

Install update from vendor's website.
