QID 378363

QID 378363: IBM Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) Server Multiple Vulnerabilities (6565413)

IBM HTTP Server powered by Apache is based on the Apache HTTP Server available for multiple platforms.

CVE-2022-22719:Apache HTTP Server is vulnerable to a denial of service. By using a specially crafted request body to read a random memory area, a remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability to cause the process to crash.
CVE-2022-22721: Apache HTTP Server is vulnerable to a buffer overflow, caused by an integer overflow. By sending an overly large LimitXMLRequestBody, a remote attacker could overflow a buffer and execute arbitrary code on the system or cause the application to crash.
CVE-2022-22720: Apache HTTP Server is vulnerable to HTTP request smuggling, caused by the failure to close inbound connection when errors are encountered discarding the request body. By sending a specially-crafted HTTP(S) transfer-encoding request header, an attacker could exploit this vulnerability to poison the web cache, bypass web application firewall protection, and conduct XSS attacks
