Apache HTTP Server: mod_xml2enc crash on charset conversion failure

view advisory published 2026-10-06Licence: per source

A NULL pointer dereference in mod_xml2enc in Apache Software Foundation Apache HTTP Server before 2.4.69 on all platforms allows an untrusted backend server to cause a denial of service via a proxied response with a charset whose conversion partially succeeds then fails. Users are recommended to upgrade to version 2.4.69, which fixes this issue.
