Ubuntu: Apache vulnerabilities

BugsAlert Home > Ubuntu: Apache vulnerabilities
 
 

LinuxSecurity.com: It was discovered that Apache did not sanitize the Expect header from an HTTP request when it is reflected back in an error message, which could result in browsers becoming vulnerable to cross-site scripting attacks when processing the output. With cross-site scripting vulnerabilities, if a user were tricked into viewing server output during a crafted server request, a remote attacker could exploit this to modify the contents, or steal confidential data (such as passwords), within the same domain. This was only vulnerable in Ubuntu 6.06. (CVE-2006-3918)
