CVE-2025-49812: Apache HTTP Server: mod_ssl TLS upgrade attack

Noroxi assessment

Priority: Monitor (action score 29/100)

  • Public proof-of-concept code exists (GitHub); there is no record of exploitation in the wild.
  • Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 0.74% (FIRST EPSS); higher than 55.2% of all records.
  • Anyone who can reach it over the internet can trigger it. No account or password is required. No user action is required. Special conditions such as timing or configuration are required.
  • Fixed version: Apache Software Foundation Apache HTTP Server 2.4.64; azl3 httpd 2.4.62-1 on Azure Linux 3.0 2.4.64-1; azl3 httpd 2.4.64-1 on Azure Linux 3.0 2.4.64-1.

Low priority for now. Upgrade to Apache Software Foundation Apache HTTP Server 2.4.64; azl3 httpd 2.4.62-1 on Azure Linux 3.0 2.4.64-1; azl3 httpd 2.4.64-1 on Azure Linux 3.0 2.4.64-1 or later.

Primary sources: NVD · CVE.org · FIRST EPSS

In some mod_ssl configurations on Apache HTTP Server versions through to 2.4.63, an HTTP desynchronisation attack allows a man-in-the-middle attacker to hijack an HTTP session via a TLS upgrade. Only configurations using "SSLEngine optional" to enable TLS upgrades are affected. Users are recommended to upgrade to version 2.4.64, which removes support for TLS upgrade.

Root cause

Authentication is added route by route instead of being enforced in one place. When a route added later bypasses the shared middleware, the session check never runs for it.

A representative example of this vulnerability class. Not the vendor's source code; it shows the faulty pattern and its fix.

Vulnerable

ts
app.use("/admin", requireSession, adminRouter);
// Route added later skips the middlewareapp.post("/admin-api/config", updateConfig);

Fixed

ts
const admin = express.Router();admin.use(requireSession, requireRole("admin"));
admin.post("/config", updateConfig);app.use("/admin", admin);
