The default installation of Apache before 1.3.19 allows remote attackers to list directories instead of the multiview index.html file via an HTTP request for a path that contains many / (slash) characters, which causes the path to be mishandled by (1) mod_negotiation, (2) mod_dir, or (3) mod_autoindex.
CVE-2001-0925
Score elevated to 9.0 because EPSS predicts 89% probability of exploitation within the next 30 days (top 0.4% of all CVEs). Confidence: see factors.
- High exploitation likelihood — EPSS 75%
No vendor fix yet — apply a workaround or compensating control (WAF / firewall / segmentation) and watch for a patch.
