CVE-2007-1349: Apache Mod Perl

Medium severity, CVSS 5.0. EPSS: 10.1% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.

PerlRun.pm in Apache mod_perl before 1.30, and RegistryCooker.pm in mod_perl 2.x, does not properly escape PATH_INFO before use in a regular expression, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (resource consumption) via a crafted URI.
