Description

A carefully crafted request uri-path can cause mod_proxy_uwsgi to read above the allocated memory and crash (DoS). This issue affects Apache HTTP Server versions 2.4.30 to 2.4.48 (inclusive). An out-of-bounds read in mod_proxy_uwsgi of httpd allows a remote unauthenticated attacker to crash the service through a crafted request. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to system availability.
