Description Robert Buchholz (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2007-12-22 21:46:28 UTC
CVE-2007-6514 (http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2007-6514):
  Apache HTTP Server, when running on Linux with a document root on a Windows
  share mounted using smbfs, allows remote attackers to obtain unprocessed
  content such as source files for .php programs via a trailing "\"
  (backslash), which is not handled by the intended AddType directive.

Comment 5 Benedikt Böhm (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2008-01-19 10:09:05 UTC
according to red hats bugzilla and the nist entry, this only happens on older 2.4 kernels, so this either needs a kernel fix if we even have any 2.4 left, otherwise INVALID
Comment 6 Robert Buchholz (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2008-01-19 23:17:48 UTC
No 2.4ers left. Closing.
