CVE-2004-0940
Buffer overflow in the get_tag function in mod_include for Apache 1.3.x to 1.3.32 allows local users who can create SSI documents to execute arbitrary code as the apache user via SSI (XSSI) documents that trigger a length calculation error.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (4.83%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
