Apache HTTPD: APR remote crash (CVE-2003-0245)
Description
The affected asset is vulnerable to this vulnerability ONLY if an attacker can send XML objects with long strings. Review your web server configuration for validation. A vulnerability in the apr_psprintf function in the Apache Portable Runtime (APR) library allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via long strings, as demonstrated using XML objects to mod_dav, and possibly other vectors.
