CVE-2024-38473 is an improper encoding flaw in mod_proxy in Apache HTTP Server 2.4.59 and earlier. Request URLs containing incorrect encoding can be forwarded to backend services in a form that differs from the form used during Apache HTTP Server request processing or authentication validation. An attacker can send a crafted request to exploit this discrepancy and potentially bypass authentication controls enforced in the proxy path.
