Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (2.80%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
Description
scoreboard.c in the Apache HTTP Server 2.2.21 and earlier might allow local users to cause a denial of service (daemon crash during shutdown) or possibly have unspecified other impact by modifying a certain type field within a scoreboard shared memory segment, leading to an invalid call to the free function.
