According to its banner, the version of Apache 2.2.x running on the remote host is prior to 2.2.6. It is, therefore, affected by the following vulnerabilities :

  - A denial of service vulnerability in mod_proxy. 
  - A cross-site scripting vulnerability in mod_status.
  - A local denial of service vulnerability associated with     the Prefork MPM module.
  - An information leak in mod_cache.
  - A denial of service vulnerability in mod_cache.

In addition, it offers a workaround for a cross-site scripting issue in mod_autoindex. 

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

Apache HTTP server project reports :

The following potential security flaws are addressed :

- CVE-2007-3847: mod_proxy: Prevent reading past the end of a buffer when parsing date-related headers.

- CVE-2007-1863: mod_cache: Prevent a segmentation fault if attributes are listed in a Cache-Control header without any value.

- CVE-2007-3304: prefork, worker, event MPMs: Ensure that the parent process cannot be forced to kill processes outside its process group.

- CVE-2006-5752: mod_status: Fix a possible XSS attack against a site with a public server-status page and ExtendedStatus enabled, for browsers which perform charset 'detection'. Reported by Stefan Esser.

- CVE-2006-1862: mod_mem_cache: Copy headers into longer lived storage; header names and values could previously point to cleaned up storage.

Several bugs were fixed in the Apache2 webserver :

These include the following security issues :

  - mod_status: Fix a possible XSS attack against a site     with a public server-status page and ExtendedStatus     enabled, for browsers which perform charset 'detection'.
    (CVE-2006-5752)

  - mod_cache: Prevent a segmentation fault if attributes     are listed in a Cache-Control header without any value.
    (CVE-2007-1863)

  - prefork, worker, event MPMs: Ensure that the parent     process cannot be forced to kill processes outside its     process group. (CVE-2007-3304)

and the following non-security issues :

  - get_module_list: replace loadmodule.conf atomically
