Synopsis

Apache 2.4.x < 2.4.62 Multiple Vulnerabilities

Description

According to its banner, the version of Apache running on the remote host is 2.4.x prior to 2.4.62. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities:

 - A partial fix for CVE-2024-39884 in the core of Apache HTTP Server 2.4.61 ignores some use of the legacy content-type based configuration of handlers. "AddType" and similar configuration, under some circumstances where files are requested indirectly, result in source code disclosure of local content. For example, PHP scripts may be served instead of interpreted. (CVE-2024-40725)

 - SSRF in Apache HTTP Server on Windows with mod_rewrite in server/vhost context, allows to potentially leak NTLM hashes to a malicious server via SSRF and malicious requests. (CVE-2024-40898) Note that the scanner has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Upgrade to Apache version 2.4.62 or later.
