Description

http_protocol.c in (1) IBM HTTP Server 6.0 before 6.0.2.13 and 6.1 before 6.1.0.1, and (2) Apache HTTP Server 1.3 before 1.3.35, 2.0 before 2.0.58, and 2.2 before 2.2.2, does not sanitize the Expect header from an HTTP request when it is reflected back in an error message, which might allow cross-site scripting (XSS) style attacks using web client components that can send arbitrary headers in requests, as demonstrated using a Flash SWF file.

Affected

Our own answer: ranges merged, affected separated from platform-only, with confidence and review flags.

1.3.3 ≤ v < 1.3.35
Affected range stops below 1.3.35, so it looks safe — our inference, not a vendor statement
