Multiple vulnerabilities have been identified in mod_jk2 for Apache, which could be exploited by remote attackers to cause a denial of service or compromise an affected web server. These issues are caused by buffer overflow errors when processing requests containing a malformed or overly long "Host" header, which could be exploited by remote attackers to crash an affected server or execute arbitrary code via a specially crafted request.
