Security Advisory
Original Publication Date: 12/10/2014
Description
Multiple cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities in the Apache HTTP Server
2.2.x before 2.2.24-dev and 2.4.x before 2.4.4 allow remote attackers to inject
arbitrary web script or HTML via vectors involving hostnames and URIs in the
(1) mod_imagemap, (2) mod_info, (3) mod_ldap, (4) mod_proxy_ftp, and (5)
mod_status modules. (CVE-2012-3499)
Impact
An attacker may be able to inject arbitrary web script or HTML.
Status
F5 Product Development has assigned ID 491603 (FirePass) and ID 431234 (ARX) to
this vulnerability, and has evaluated the currently supported releases for
potential vulnerability.
To determine if your release is known to be vulnerable, the components or
features that are affected by the vulnerability, and for information about
releases or hotfixes that
address the vulnerability, refer to the following table:
Product Versions known to be vulnerable Versions known to be not vulnerable Vulnerable component or feature
ARX 6.0.0 - 6.4.0 None Management API (disabled by default)
FirePass 7.0.0
6.0.0 - 6.1.0 None The httpd process mod_info and mod_status
Recommended Action
If the previous table lists a version in the Versions known to be not
vulnerable column, you can eliminate this vulnerability by upgrading to the
listed version. If the table does not list any version in the column, then no
upgrade candidate currently exists.
To mitigate this vulnerability for ARX, do not enable the API functionality.
