An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2020-11985 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- apache (Bitnami): affected from 2.4.1; fixed in 2.4.24\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2020-11985/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2020-11985/index.md)","id":"CVE-2020-11985","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2020-11985/index.md","name":"CVE-2020-11985","record":{"aliases":["BIT-apache-2020-11985","DEBIAN-CVE-2020-11985","GHSA-39vm-h38v-j867","RHBA-2015:2194","UBUNTU-CVE-2020-11985"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["security_bypass","data_read"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":true,"product_category":"Apache HTTP Server","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attackers can spoof IP addresses in logs and PHP scripts when using mod_remoteip with specific mod_rewrite rules, bypassing IP-based security controls.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"security_feature_bypass"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"apache","cpe":[{"product":"http_server","vendor":"apache"}],"cvss":{"score":5.3,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-345","name":"Insufficient Verification of Data Authenticity"}],"description":"IP address spoofing when proxying using mod_remoteip and mod_rewrite For configurations using proxying with mod_remoteip and certain mod_rewrite rules, an attacker could spoof their IP address for logging and PHP scripts.
