mod_survey 3.0.0 through 3.0.15-pre6 does not check whether a survey exists before creating a subdirectory for it, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (disk consumption and possible crash).

Security readout for executives and security teams

A legacy mod_survey flaw can let a remote user consume server disk space and potentially crash the service. The source bundle identifies affected versions as 3.0.0 through 3.0.15-pre6. Business risk is mainly availability loss for systems still exposing this old survey component. Exposure appears limited to organizations still running mod_survey 3.0.0 through 3.0.15-pre6, especially if the survey endpoint is reachable from untrusted networks. The structured affected-product fields are incomplete in the bundle. Treat this as a targeted legacy exposure issue. Prioritize if mod_survey is internet-facing or supports business-critical workflows; otherwise handle through legacy software retirement and availability hardening. Mitigation focus: Inventory any mod_survey deployments and confirm exact versions.; Check the vendor advisory and changelog for supported upgrade guidance.; Remove or disable mod_survey if it is no longer business-required..
