local users to potentially disclose sensitive information and by
malicious people to disclose potentially sensitive information,
manipulate certain data, cause a DoS (Denial of Service), and
potentially compromise a vulnerable system.

1) Sensitive information may be written to the trace log file in
cleartext when full SIP (Session Initiation Protocol) tracing is
enabled and users connect using Basic authentication.

exploited to disclose potentially sensitive information.

For more information see vulnerability #3:

re-negotiations can be exploited to manipulate certain data.

SA37291

4) A vulnerability in mod_proxy_ajp module can be exploited to cause
a DoS (Denial of Service).

For more information see vulnerability #1:

vulnerable system.

For more information see vulnerability #2:
