Description

The mod_cgid module in the Apache HTTP Server before 2.4.10 does not have a timeout mechanism, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (process hang) via a request to a CGI script that does not read from its stdin file descriptor.

Affected

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

Affected range stops below 2.2.29, so it looks safe — our inference, not a vendor statement
Affected range stops below 2.4.10, so it looks safe — our inference, not a vendor statement
