Published Oct 1, 2026 CVSS 3.1 · 5.3 Medium EPSS < 1% KEV · Not listed
Description
Internal state files accessible to external parties in mod_dav_fs in Apache Software Foundation Apache HTTP Server before 2.4.69 on all platforms allows a remote client to read WebDAV dead properties of resources it cannot author via a GET request for the .DAV state directory



This issue affects Apache HTTP Server: from 2.4.0 through 2.4.68.

Analysis

AI-generated

Technical impact

Apache HTTP Server versions prior to 2.4.69 on all platforms include a flaw in the mod_dav_fs component that allows remote clients to access internal state files. By issuing a simple GET request to the ".DAV" state directory, an attacker can retrieve the dead properties of WebDAV resources that the client cannot normally modify. This exposure allows the attacker to read the dead properties of WebDAV resources.

Affected Systems

The vulnerability affects Apache HTTP Server releases from 2.4.0 through 2.4.68. All operating systems that run these versions are potentially impacted, regardless of platform.

Risk and Exploitability

The vulnerability can be exploited by a remote client over HTTP. The CVSS score is 5.3, indicating a moderate severity. EPSS score is not available, and the issue is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog.

Remediation

No solution or workaround provided in the CVE record.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Upgrade Apache HTTP Server to version 2.4.69 or newer.
  • If an upgrade is not immediately possible, restrict or disable access to the ".DAV" state directory by configuring appropriate access controls or removing the directory from the web server’s document root.
  • Ensure that WebDAV is only enabled on resources that require it and apply authentication or authorization rules to prevent unauthenticated users from reading state files.
