Description

Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in mod_autoindex.c in the Apache HTTP Server before 2.2.6, when the charset on a server-generated page is not defined, allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via the P parameter using the UTF-7 charset. NOTE: it could be argued that this issue is due to a design limitation of browsers that attempt to perform automatic content type detection.

Affected

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

2.0.0 ≤ v < 2.0.612.2.0 ≤ v < 2.2.6
Affected range stops below 2.0.61, so it looks safe — our inference, not a vendor statement
Affected range stops below 2.2.6, so it looks safe — our inference, not a vendor statement
