several issues, including :

(CVE-2007-5000).
- A cross-site scripting issue involving 413 error pages
via a malformed HTTP method (PR 44014 / CVE-2007-6203).
- A cross-site scripting issue in mod_status involving
the refresh parameter (CVE-2007-6388).
- A cross-site scripting issue in mod_proxy_balancer
involving the worker route and worker redirect
string of the balancer manager (CVE-2007-6421).
- A denial of service issue in the balancer_handler
function in mod_proxy_balancer can be triggered by
an authenticated user when a threaded Multi-
Processing Module is used (CVE-2007-6422).
- A cross-site scripting issue using UTF-7 encoding
in mod_proxy_ftp exists because it does not
define a charset (CVE-2008-0005).

vulnerabilities. did not try to determine whether the affected
modules are in use or to check for the issues themselves.
