Insight
It was discovered that the apr_fnmatch() function used an unconstrained recursion when processing patterns with the &
#039
*&
#039
wildcard. An attacker
could use this flaw to cause an application using this function, which also accepted untrusted input as a pattern for matching (such as an httpd server using the mod_autoindex module), to exhaust all stack memory or use an excessive amount of CPU time when performing matching (CVE-2011-0419).
