DESCRIPTION:
Adrian Pastor and Amir Azam have discovered a vulnerability in
Apache, which can be exploited by malicious people to conduct
cross-site scripting attacks.

Input passed via the HTTP method is not properly sanitised before
being returned to the user when displaying a "413 Request Entity Too
Large" error page. This can be exploited to execute arbitrary HTML
and script code in a user's browser session in context of an affected
site.

The vulnerability is confirmed in version 2.2.4 and reported in
versions 2.0.46, 2.0.51, 2.0.55, 2.0.59, and 2.2.3. Other versions
may also be affected.

NOTE: Exploiting the vulnerability might be dependent on the Flash
player version installed on the target machine.
