CVE-2002-0392 is an integer-size handling vulnerability in Apache HTTP Server processing of chunk-encoded HTTP requests. A malformed chunk-encoded request can cause Apache to use an incorrect size. Apache 1.3 through 1.3.24 and Apache 2.0 through 2.0.36 are affected; the reported consequences differ by branch, with arbitrary code execution reported for affected Apache 1.3 versions and child-process crashes reported for Apache 2.0.

This repository contains a single Metasploit module (modules/exploits/windows/http/apache_chunked.rb) that exploits the chunked transfer encoding integer wrap vulnerability (CVE-2002-0392) in Apache HTTP Server for Windows (versions 1.2.x to 1.3.24). The exploit targets the HTTP service by sending a specially crafted HTTP request with a maliciously constructed chunked payload, resulting in a buffer overflow and execution of arbitrary code. The module supports multiple target configurations, including official Apache.org builds and bundled versions with Oracle and IBM products. The payload is fully customizable via Metasploit, allowing for reverse shells, Meterpreter sessions, or other post-exploitation actions. The module includes auto-targeting and brute-force capabilities to identify the correct return address for exploitation. The only network endpoint directly referenced is the root URI ('/') of the target HTTP server. The code is mature and weaponized, as it is part of the Metasploit framework and provides robust payload handling and targeting options.
