CVE-2007-6203
Notifications for a CVE
Stay informed of any changes for a specific CVE.
CVE Descriptions
Apache HTTP Server 2.0.x and 2.2.x does not sanitize the HTTP Method specifier header from an HTTP request when it is reflected back in a "413 Request Entity Too Large" error message, which might allow cross-site scripting (XSS) style attacks using web client components that can send arbitrary headers in requests, as demonstrated via an HTTP request containing an invalid Content-length value, a similar issue to CVE-2006-3918.

EPSS
EPSS is a scoring model that predicts the likelihood of a vulnerability being exploited.
EPSS Score
The EPSS model produces a probability score between 0 and 1 (0 and 100%). The higher the score, the greater the probability that a vulnerability will be exploited.
EPSS Percentile
The percentile is used to rank CVE according to their EPSS score. For example, a CVE in the 95th percentile according to its EPSS score is more likely to be exploited than 95% of other CVE. Thus, the percentile is used to compare the EPSS score of a CVE with that of other CVE.

Apache is prone to a cross-site scripting weakness when handling HTTP request methods that result in 413 HTTP errors.
An attacker may exploit this issue to steal cookie-based authentication credentials and launch other attacks.
Apache 2.0.46 through 2.2.4 are vulnerable; other versions may also be affected.
