USN-8338-1: Apache HTTP Server vulnerabilities

It was discovered that Apache HTTP Server incorrectly handled certain
response headers. An attacker could possibly use this issue to perform
HTTP response splitting attacks. This issue only affected Ubuntu 14.04
LTS. (CVE-2023-38709)

Will Dormann and David Warren discovered that Apache HTTP Server's HTTP/2
implementation did not properly reclaim memory when streams were reset by
clients. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to cause Apache
HTTP Server to consume resources, leading to a denial of service. This
issue only affected Ubuntu 18.04 LTS. (CVE-2023-45802)

Keran Mu and Jianjun Chen discovered that Apache HTTP Server incorrectly
handled certain response headers. An attacker could possibly use this issue
to perform HTTP response splitting attacks. This issue only affected Ubuntu
14.04 LTS. (CVE-2024-24795)

Orange Tsai discovered that Apache HTTP Server mod_proxy incorrectly
handled URL encoding. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to
bypass authentication via crafted requests. This issue only affected
Ubuntu 16.04 LTS and Ubuntu 18.04 LTS. (CVE-2024-38473)

Orange Tsai discovered that Apache HTTP Server could be caused to perform
server-side request forgery (SSRF) via malicious backend response headers.
A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to conduct SSRF attacks or
disclose sensitive information. This issue only affected Ubuntu 14.04 LTS.
(CVE-2024-38476)

Orange Tsai discovered that Apache HTTP Server mod_proxy did not properly
handle certain null pointer conditions. A remote attacker could possibly use this
issue to cause Apache HTTP Server to crash, resulting in a denial of
service. This issue only affected Ubuntu 14.04 LTS. (CVE-2024-38477)

Orange Tsai discovered that Apache HTTP Server mod_rewrite could be made
to perform server-side request forgery (SSRF) via unsafe RewriteRules. A
remote attacker could possibly use this issue to conduct SSRF attacks. This
issue only affected Ubuntu 16.04 LTS and Ubuntu 18.04 LTS. (CVE-2024-39573)

It was discovered that Apache HTTP Server incorrectly handled certain
response headers. An attacker could possibly use this issue to perform
HTTP response splitting attacks. This issue only affected Ubuntu 14.04 LTS.
(CVE-2024-42516)

It was discovered that Apache HTTP Server could be caused to perform
server-side request forgery (SSRF) via mod_headers modifying Content-Type
headers. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to conduct SSRF
attacks. This issue only affected Ubuntu 14.04 LTS. (CVE-2024-43204)

John Runyon discovered that Apache HTTP Server mod_ssl did not properly
escape user-supplied data before writing log entries. A remote attacker
could possibly use this issue to insert escape sequences into log files.
This issue only affected Ubuntu 14.04 LTS. (CVE-2024-47252)

Robert Merget discovered that Apache HTTP Server with SSLEngine optional was
vulnerable to HTTP desynchronisation attacks. An attacker in a privileged
network position could possibly use this issue to hijack HTTP sessions. This issue
only affected Ubuntu 14.04 LTS. (CVE-2025-49812)

It was discovered that Apache HTTP Server mod_md had an integer overflow in
the ACME certificate renewal backoff timer. An attacker could possibly use
this issue to cause excessive certificate renewal requests. This issue only
affected Ubuntu 20.04 LTS. (CVE-2025-55753)

Anthony Parfenov discovered that Apache HTTP Server with SSI enabled and
mod_cgid passed shell-escaped query strings to #exec cmd directives. A
remote attacker could possibly use this issue to perform command injection.
(CVE-2025-58098)

Mattias Åsander discovered that Apache HTTP Server incorrectly gave
precedence to environment variables from HTTP headers over server-calculated
CGI variables. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to influence
the environment of CGI programs. (CVE-2025-65082)

Mattias Åsander discovered that Apache HTTP Server mod_userdir with suexec
could be caused to run CGI scripts under an unexpected user ID via
RequestHeader directives in .htaccess files. An attacker with .htaccess
write access could possibly use this issue to bypass suexec user restrictions.
(CVE-2025-66200)
