Memory Allocation with Excessive Size Value vulnerability in Apache HTTP Servers mod_http leads to denial of service via malicious HTTP requests.

This issue affects Apache HTTP Server: from 2.4.17 through 2.4.67.

Weakness

The product allocates memory based on an untrusted, large size value, but it does not ensure that the size is within expected limits, allowing arbitrary amounts of memory to be allocated.
