The dbm and shm session cache code in mod_ssl before 2.8.7-1.3.23, and Apache-SSL before 1.3.22+1.46, does not properly initialize memory using the i2d_SSL_SESSION function, which allows remote attackers to use a buffer overflow to execute arbitrary code via a large client certificate that is signed by a trusted Certificate Authority (CA), which produces a large serialized session.

Security readout for executives and security teams

This is an old Apache SSL module vulnerability where a malicious client certificate could corrupt memory during session caching. If a legacy server trusted the issuing CA and used affected mod_ssl or Apache-SSL versions, a remote attacker could potentially run code on the web server. Exposure is most likely in legacy Apache 1.3-era SSL deployments using affected mod_ssl or Apache-SSL with dbm or shm session caching and client certificate authentication against trusted CAs. Prioritize this if the organization still runs legacy Apache SSL infrastructure. The business risk is server compromise, but exposure depends on outdated components and trusted client certificate handling. Mitigation focus: Upgrade mod_ssl to 2.8.7-1.3.23 or later where applicable.; Upgrade Apache-SSL to a fixed vendor package or newer supported stack.; Review vendor advisories for distribution-specific fixed packages..
