CVE-2020-35452 is a stack-based buffer overflow in Apache HTTP Server mod_auth_digest affecting versions 2.4.0 through 2.4.46. While validating a specially crafted HTTP Digest authentication nonce, the module can write one NUL byte beyond a stack buffer. The upstream correction was included in Apache HTTP Server 2.4.47; users should obtain the publicly released 2.4.48 or a vendor-maintained package containing the backport.
