CVE-2013-1048: The Debian apache2ctl script in the apache2 package squeeze before 2.2.16-6+squeeze11, wheezy before 2.2.22...

The Debian apache2ctl script in the apache2 package squeeze before 2.2.16-6+squeeze11, wheezy before 2.2.22-13, and sid before 2.2.22-13 for the Apache HTTP Server on Debian GNU/Linux does not properly create the /var/lock/apache2 lock directory, which allows local users to gain privileges via an unspecified symlink attack.

Security readout for executives and security teams

This is an old Debian Apache packaging flaw. A local user on an affected Debian system could abuse how apache2ctl created /var/lock/apache2 and potentially gain higher privileges. It is not a remote web attack based on the supplied sources. Exposure is mainly legacy Debian GNU/Linux systems running affected apache2 package versions. Systems must have local user access for the described attack path. The bundle does not identify non-Debian distributions or modern Apache releases as affected. Treat as a cleanup priority for legacy Debian servers, especially shared systems with local users. It is less urgent than internet-exposed remote code execution, but privilege escalation can turn a low-privilege foothold into system compromise. Mitigation focus: Upgrade Debian apache2 to the fixed package for the relevant release.; Use Debian DSA-2637 as the authoritative remediation reference.; Retire or isolate unsupported Debian squeeze and wheezy systems..
