Vulnerability Name:

CVE-2002-1850 (CCN-10200)

Assigned:2002-09-23
Published:2002-09-23
Updated:2016-10-18
Summary:mod_cgi in Apache 2.0.39 and 2.0.40 allows local users and possibly remote attackers to cause a denial of service (hang and memory consumption) by causing a CGI script to send a large amount of data to stderr, which results in a read/write deadlock between httpd and the CGI script.
