CVE-2017-9788

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.

En Apache httpd, en versiones anteriores a la 2.2.34 y en versiones 2.4.x anteriores a la 2.4.27, el valor placeholder en cabeceras [Proxy-]Authorization del tipo 'Digest' no se inicializó o reinició antes de o entre las asignaciones sucesivas key=value por mod_auth_digest. Proporcionar una clave inicial sin asignación "=" podría reflejar el valor obsoleto de la memoria agrupada no inicializada utilizada por la petición anterior. Esto podría dar lugar al filtrado de información potencialmente confidencial y, en otros casos, a un fallo de segmentación que daría como resultado una denegación de servicio (DoS)
