CVE-2019-0211: Apache HTTP Server privilege escalation from modules' scripts
Severity: important
Vendor: The Apache Software Foundation
Versions Affected:
httpd 2.4.17 to 2.4.38
Description:
In Apache HTTP Server 2.4 releases 2.4.17 to 2.4.38, with MPM event,
worker or prefork, code executing in less-privileged child processes
or threads (including scripts executed by an in-process scripting
interpreter) could execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the
parent process (usually root) by manipulating the scoreboard. Non-Unix
systems are not affected.
Mitigation:
All httpd users running MPM event, worker or prefork should upgrade to
2.4.39 or later.
Credit:
The issue was discovered by Charles Fol.
