CVE-2026-34059

A flaw was found in the mod_proxy_ajp module of httpd. When processing AJP (Apache JServ Protocol) messages, the ajp_parse_data function attempts to read data beyond the allocated buffer size, allowing an attacker or a malformed request to cause a heap-based buffer over-read. This issue potentially leads to memory disclosure and a denial of service.

To exploit this issue, the Apache HTTP Server must be configured to connect to an untrusted or compromised AJP backend server, limiting its exposure. Due to this reason, this flaw has been rated with a moderate severity.

This flaw only affects configurations with mod_proxy_ajp loaded and being used. This module can be disabled via the configuration file if its functionality is not being used.

The CVSS score(s) listed for this vulnerability do not reflect the associated product's status, and are included for informational purposes to better understand the severity of this vulnerability.

Disabling mod_proxy_ajp and restarting httpd will mitigate this flaw.
