CVE-2026-63045: Apache HTTP Server

High severity, CVSS 7.5. EPSS: 0.5% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.

Improper validation of FTP PASV reply address in mod_proxy_ftp in Apache Software Foundation Apache HTTP Server through 2.4.68 on all platforms allows, in forward proxy configurations, an untrusted FTP server to cause the proxy to open a data connection to an arbitrary third-party host via a crafted PASV response. Users are recommended to upgrade to version 2.4.69, which fixes this issue.

Affected products

• Apache HTTP Server: from 2.4.0, before 2.4.69 (fixed in 2.4.69)
