[UPDATE] [hoch] OWASP ModSecurity: Mehrere Schwachstellen

High-severity ModSecurity update addresses WAF-bypass and information-disclosure flaws — enterprises using ModSecurity as a compensating control should treat this as a priority since the WAF itself becomes the weak link.

Ein Angreifer kann mehrere Schwachstellen in OWASP ModSecurity ausnutzen, um Sicherheitsvorkehrungen zu umgehen, um Informationen offenzulegen und um einen Denial of Service Angriff durchzuführen.

Editorial Analysis
