Threat details

Introduction

Cisco has released a security advisory for products known to be affected by vulnerabilities in Apache HTTP Server (httpd) 2.4.48 and earlier releases. Details of these vulnerabilities can be found in the Apache HTTP Server 2.4.49 section of the Apache HTTP Server 2.4 vulnerabilities webpage. These vulnerabilities include CVE-2021-40438, a critical vulnerability (CVS v3 9.0) in Apache 2.4.48 and earlier that is being exploited in the wild.

Cisco is continuing to investigate its product line to determine if any other products are affected by these vulnerabilities and will update its advisory accordingly.


Remediation advice

Affected organisations are encouraged to review the Cisco Security Advisory below and apply the available updates. 

Organisations should be aware that security updates for some of the confirmed affected products have not yet been released. Cisco are also continuing to investigate other products to identify if they are affected by these vulnerabilities. Organisations are therefore advised to continue to monitor the security advisory for updated information relating to update releases and additional affected products.
