Overview

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Incorrect Default Permissions in mod_jk running on Unix or Unix-like platforms, due to overly permissive permissions (0666) on shared memory segments controlled by JkShmFile. This allows attackers to expose or modify the contents of some shared memory.
