Tracker summary

CVE-2017-9788 severity moderate: SUSE including 48 source package names (apache2, apache2-2.2.34-70.5.1, …), 123 product×package rows across 25 product lines (SUSE Liberty Linux 7, SUSE Linux Enterprise High Performance Computing 12 SP5, … (25 product lines)): Fixed 122, Known Not Affected 1.

Description:

In Apache httpd before 2.2.34 and 2.4.x before 2.4.27, the value placeholder in [Proxy-]Authorization headers of type 'Digest' was not initialized or reset before or between successive key=value assignments by mod_auth_digest. Providing an initial key with no '=' assignment could reflect the stale value of uninitialized pool memory used by the prior request, leading to leakage of potentially confidential information, and a segfault in other cases resulting in denial of service.
