CVE-2006-7098: Debian Apache

Medium severity, CVSS 6.6. EPSS: 0.6% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.

The Debian GNU/Linux 033_-F_NO_SETSID patch for the Apache HTTP Server 1.3.34-4 does not properly disassociate httpd from a controlling tty when httpd is started interactively, which allows local users to gain privileges to that tty via a CGI program that calls the TIOCSTI ioctl.

Affected products

• Debian Apache: version 1.3.34.4 only
