Synopsis
The remote web server is affected by multiple vulnerabilities.Description
The version of Oracle HTTP Server installed on the remote host is affected by multiple vulnerabilities :- (CVE-2003-1418)
- A denial of service vulnerability exists in libxml2, related to the xmlParserHandlePEReference() function in file parser.c, due to loading external parameter entities without regard to entity substitution or validation being enabled, as in the case of entity substitution in the doctype prolog.
