CVE-2002-1593  (opens in a new tab)

How to fix?

Upgrade Debian:8 apache2 to version 2.0.42 or higher.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream apache2 package and not the apache2 package as distributed by Debian. See How to fix? for Debian:8 relevant fixed versions and status.

mod_dav in Apache before 2.0.42 does not properly handle versioning hooks, which may allow remote attackers to kill a child process via a null dereference and cause a denial of service (CPU consumption) in a preforked multi-processing module.
