Debian-specific: no
CVE ID : CVE-2006-0042
BugTraq ID : 16710
Debian Bug : 354060
An algorithm weakness has been discovered in Apache2::Request, the
generic request library for Apache2 which can be exploited remotely
and cause a denial of service via CPU consumption.
The old stable distribution (woody) does not contain this package.
