Apache HTTP Server mod_proxy reverse proxy issue
The reverse proxy feature (mod_proxy) has a new vulnerability. If pattern matching is used, a crafted attack (using invalid inputs - even though this does not involve SQL the "Little Bobby Tables" XKCD comes to mind again, for like the 3rd time this week ! ) can expose information on internal hosts.

Patch is available for 2.2.21 here==> http://www.apache.org/dist/httpd/patches/apply_to_2.2.21/
