Summary
Red Hat Security Advisory: Red Hat JBoss Core Services Apache HTTP Server 2.4.62 security update

Notes

Topic
Red Hat JBoss Core Services Apache HTTP Server 2.4.62 is now available. Red Hat Product Security has rated this update as having a security impact of Important. A Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base score, which gives a detailed severity rating, is available for each vulnerability from the CVE link(s) in the References section.
Details
Red Hat JBoss Core Services is a set of supplementary software for Red Hat JBoss middleware products. This software, such as Apache HTTP Server, is common to multiple JBoss middleware products and packaged under Red Hat JBoss Core Services, to allow for faster distribution of updates and for a more consistent update experience. This release of Red Hat JBoss Core Services Apache HTTP Server 2.4.62 serves as a replacement for Red Hat JBoss Core Services Apache HTTP Server 2.4.57 Service Pack 6, and includes bug fixes and enhancements, which are documented in the Release Notes document linked to in the References. Security Fix(es): * expat: parsing large tokens can trigger a denial of service (CVE-2023-52425) * expat: Negative Length Parsing Vulnerability in libexpat (CVE-2024-45490) * libxml2: libxml2: Use-After-Free in libxml2 (CVE-2024-56171) * libxml2: libxml2: Stack-based buffer overflow in xmlSnprintfElements of libxml2 (CVE-2025-24928) * mod_http2: DoS by null pointer in websocket over HTTP/2 (CVE-2024-36387) * openssl: SSL_select_next_proto buffer overread (CVE-2024-5535) For more details about the security issue(s), including the impact, a CVSS score, acknowledgments, and other related information, refer to the CVE page(s) listed in the References section.

Specifically, it requires an unlikely scenario where the input passed to the function has a negative length (len < 0), which would typically not occur in well-formed applications. Moreover, while the impact includes denial of service (DoS), the conditions necessary for arbitrary code execution are non-trivial, requiring specific exploitation of memory corruption. Since it primarily leads to application crashes without an easily accessible attack vector for remote code execution, the risk is lower compared to higher-severity vulnerabilities that offer more direct pathways to exploitation.",
