CVE-2026-58415: Apache HTTP Server mod_dav_fs information disclosure in WebDAV properties

CVE-2026-58415 · Severity: medium · CVSS 5.3 · Published 2026-10-01

Apache HTTP Server is a widely used web server that handles website content delivery and WebDAV file sharing. An attacker can remotely read internal WebDAV metadata (dead properties) that should not be accessible through a GET request to the .DAV state directory, potentially exposing configuration or application details. This affects versions 2.4.0 through 2.4.68 and is fixed in 2.4.69.

Technologies: Apache HTTP Server, Apache Software Foundation HTTP Server. Vendors: Apache, Apache Software Foundation.

Technical details

The mod_dav_fs module in Apache HTTP Server fails to properly restrict access to its WebDAV dead properties storage directory (.DAV), allowing unauthenticated remote clients to read internal state files via GET requests. This information disclosure occurs because the DAV state directory lacks proper access controls, exposing metadata about WebDAV resources that the requesting client should not have permission to view. The vulnerability requires only network access and no authentication.
