Summary
Certain mod_proxy configurations in versions 2.4.0 through 2.4.55 of Apache HTTP Server could allow unauthorized access via an "HTTP Request Smuggling attack". The official CVE entry describes these configurations:
"Configurations are affected when mod_proxy is enabled along with some form of RewriteRule or ProxyPassMatch in which a non-specific pattern matches some portion of the user-supplied request-target (URL) data and is then re-inserted into the proxied request-target using variable substitution ... Request splitting/smuggling could result in bypass of access controls in the proxy server, proxying unintended URLs to existing origin servers, and cache poisoning."
[CVE-2023-25690 - Mitre.org]
This vulnerability has since been fixed in version 2.4.56 (or later) of Apache HTTP Server.
