A flaw was found in a change made to path normalization in Apache HTTP Server 2.4.49. An attacker could use a path traversal attack to map URLs to files outside the directories configured by Alias-like directives. If files outside of these directories are not protected by the usual default configuration "require all denied", these requests can succeed. If CGI scripts are also enabled for these aliased pathes, this could allow for remote code execution. This issue is known to be exploited in the wild. This issue only affects Apache 2.4.49 and not earlier versions. The fix in Apache HTTP Server 2.4.50 was found to be incomplete, see CVE-2021-42013.

It was found that the fix for CVE-2021-41773 in Apache HTTP Server 2.4.50 was insufficient.

Apache HTTPd是Apache基金会开源的一款流行的HTTP服务器。 2021年10月8日Apache HTTPd官方发布安全更新，披露了CVE-2021-42013 Apache HTTPd 2.4.49/2.4.50 路径穿越漏洞。由于对CVE-2021-41773 Apache HTTPd 2.4.49 路径穿越漏洞的修复不完善，攻击者可构造恶意请求绕过布丁，利用穿越漏洞读取到Web目录之外的其他文件。同时若Apache HTTPd开启了cgi支持，攻击者可构造恶意请求执行命令，控制服务器。阿里云应急响应中心提醒 Apache HTTPd 用户尽快采取安全措施阻止漏洞攻击。
