A null pointer dereference vulnerability has been reported in the mod_http2 module of Apache HTTPD. A remote, unauthenticated attacker could exploit these vulnerability by sending maliciously crafted HTTP request to the affected server. Successful exploitation of the vulnerability could lead to denial of service conditions.
A maliciously constructed HTTP/2 request could cause mod_http2 in Apache HTTP Server 2.4.24, 2.4.25 to dereference a NULL pointer and crash the server process.
