Discussion

Apache 'mod_ssl' 'ssl_util_uuencode_binary()' Stack Buffer Overflow Vulnerability

A stack-based buffer overflow has been reported in the Apache 'mod_ssl' module.

This issue is exposed in utility code for uuencoding binary data.

This issue would most likely result in a denial of service if triggered, but could theoretically allow arbitrary code to run. The issue is not believed to be exploitable to execute arbitrary code on x86 architectures, but this may not be the case with other architectures.
