Open Source Vulnerability Database (OSVDB)

Id Description
12881 OpenBSD httpd mod_include Local Overflow

A local overflow exists in OpenBSD. The mod_include module for httpd fails to properly validate the length of user supplied tag strings prior to copying them to a local buffer resulting in a buffer overflow. With a specially crafted request, an attacker can cause arbitrary code execution resulting in a loss of integrity.
11003 Apache HTTP Server mod_include get_tag() Function Local Overflow

A local overflow exists in the Apache HTTP server mod_include module (compiled in by default). The get_tag() function in mod_include.c contains a logic flaw resulting in a buffer overflow. A local attacker who is authorized to create server side include (SSI) files, can create a specially crafted HTML file and cause arbitrary code execution with the privileges of the httpd child process, resulting in a loss of integrity.
