CVE-2011-0419 is a stack consumption / resource exhaustion vulnerability in the filename pattern-matching routine fnmatch. In Apache Portable Runtime (APR), the issue exists in the fnmatch implementation in apr_fnmatch.c (APR before 1.4.3) and affects Apache HTTP Server before 2.2.18 via its use of APR. Similar vulnerable fnmatch.c implementations are present in libc on multiple platforms (NetBSD 5.1, OpenBSD 4.8, FreeBSD, Apple Mac OS X 10.6, Oracle Solaris 10, and Android). A context-dependent attacker can trigger excessive stack usage and associated CPU/memory consumption by supplying crafted patterns containing repeated "*?" sequences in the first argument to fnmatch. In Apache httpd, this can be demonstrated against mod_autoindex, where attacker-controlled request paths can be processed through fnmatch during directory indexing, leading to denial of service.
