CVE-2015-0228

Publication date 16 February 2015

Last updated 24 July 2024

Ubuntu priority

Low

Why this priority?

The lua_websocket_read function in lua_request.c in the mod_lua module in the Apache HTTP Server through 2.4.12 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (child-process crash) by sending a crafted WebSocket Ping frame after a Lua script has called the wsupgrade function.
