    Package        : libapache2-mod-auth-openidc     Version        : 2.4.9.4-0+deb11u6     CVE ID         : CVE-2025-3891     Debian Bug     : 1104484

    A vulnerability has been fixed in mod_auth_openidc, an OpenID Certified     authentication and authorization module for the Apache 2.x HTTP server     that implements the OpenID Connect Relying Party functionality.

    An unauthenticated attacker can crash the Apache httpd process by sending     a POST request without a Content-Type header when OIDCPreservePost is     enabled in mod_auth_openidc. This leads to denial of service.

    A workaround is to disable the OIDCPreservePost directive.

    For Debian 11 bullseye, this problem has been fixed in version     2.4.9.4-0+deb11u6.

    We recommend that you upgrade your libapache2-mod-auth-openidc packages.
