Subject Name:            Apache mod_include
Subject Summary:         Apache HTTP Server
Subject Home:            http://httpd.apache.org/
Subject Versions:        * <= 1.3.32

Vulnerability Id:        CVE-2004-0940
Vulnerability Scope:     global (not OpenPKG specific)

Attack Feasibility:      run-time
Attack Vector:           remote network
Attack Impact:           arbitrary code execution

Description:
    According to a vendor announcement [1], a vulnerability exists in
    the Apache HTTP server [0], version 1.3. The problem is a potential
    buffer overflow in the "get_tag" function of Apache's SSI module
    "mod_include". It allows local users who can create SSI documents
    to execute arbitrary code as the Apache run-time user via SSI
    documents that trigger a content length calculation error.
