Discussion

Apache mod_include Local Buffer Overflow Vulnerability

The problem presents itself when the affected module attempts to parse mod_include-specific tag values. A failure to properly validate the lengths of user-supplied tag strings before copying them into finite buffers facilitates the overflow.
