Summary

The Apache Software Foundation and HTTP Server Project groups recently announced three vulnerabilities in previous versions of Apache HTTP Server 2.4: 

CVE-2024-24795: An attacker could inject malicious response headers via HTTP response splitting, with previous versions of Apache HTTP Server v2.4. This could subsequently enable the attacker to perform further exploits and possibly obtain sensitive information. The Apache Foundation currently has a risk assessment of "low" for this CVE.

CVE-2024-27316: An attacker could cause memory exhaustion and a subsequent DoS by sending a continuous stream of HTTP/2 headers, with previous versions of Apache HTTP Server v2.4. The Apache Foundation currently has a risk assessment of "moderate" for this CVE.

CVE-2023-38709: Faulty input validation in the core of Apache could allow malicious or exploitable backend/content generators to split HTTP responses. As with CVE-2024-24795, this could subsequently enable the attacker to perform further exploits and possibly obtain sensitive information. The Apache Foundation currently has a risk assessment of "moderate" for this CVE.

All three of the above CVEs have been fixed in Apache HTTP Server 2.4.59.
