Linux doesn't seem vulnerable. Tested on both Apache/2.0.39 and Apache/1.3.20, on Redhat 7.3 and 7.2 respectively. Error log reports 'invalid command [data], perhaps mis-spelled or defined by a module not included in the server configuration.' Where is the overflow taking place on OpenBsd? -ryan

an .htaccess file. Requesting a directory containing this file causes all httpd daemons to die. Works on my OpenBSD 3.1-current.-- __ /*- Frank DENIS (Jedi/Sector One) <j () 42-Networks Com>
