Unspecified vulnerability in mod_proxy_balancer for Apache HTTP Server 2.2.x before 2.2.7-dev, when running on Windows, allows remote attackers to trigger memory corruption via a long URL. NOTE: the vendor could not reproduce this issue

According to its banner, the version of Apache 2.2.x running on the remote host is prior to 2.2.9. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities :

  - Improper handling of excessive forwarded interim     responses may cause denial of service conditions in     mod_proxy_http. (CVE-2008-2364)

  - A cross-site request forgery vulnerability in the     balancer-manager interface of mod_proxy_balancer.
    (CVE-2007-6420)

Note that the remote web server may not actually be affected by these vulnerabilities. Nessus did not try to determine whether the affected modules are in use or to check for the issues themselves.

The version of Apache installed on the remote host is advertising a version older than 2.2.8.  Such versions may be affected by several issues, including :

 - A cross-site scripting issue involving mod_imagemap (CVE-2007-5000).

 - A cross-site scripting issue involving 413 error pages via a malformed HTTP method (PR 44014 / CVE-2007-6203).

 - A cross-site scripting issue in mod_status involving the refresh parameter (CVE-2007-6388).

 - A cross-site scripting issue in mod_proxy_balancer involving the worker route and worker redirect string of the balancer manager (CVE-2007-6421).

 - A denial of service issue in the balancer_handler function in mod_proxy_balancer can be triggered by an authenticated user when a threaded Multi-Processing Module is used (CVE-2007-6422).

 - A cross-site scripting issue using UTF-7 encoding in mod_proxy_ftp exists because it does not define a charset (CVE-2008-0005).

According to its banner, the version of Apache 2.2 installed on the remote host is older than 2.2.9.  Such versions may be affected by several issues, including :

  - Improper handling of excessive forwarded interim responses may cause denial of service conditions in mod_proxy_http (CVE-2008-2364).
  - A cross-site request forgery vulnerability in the balancer-manager interface of mod_proxy_balancer (CVE-2007-6420).
  - An issue exists in the handling of the 'Options' and 'AllowOverride' directives (CVE-2009-1195).

Note that the remote web server may not actually be affected by these vulnerabilities.  NNM cannot determine whether the affected modules are in use.
