CVE-2004-0493 is a vulnerability of currently unknown severity. The ap_get_mime_headers_core function in Apache httpd 2.0.49 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory exhaustion), and possibly an integer signedness error leading to a heap-based buffer overflow on 64 bit systems, via long header lines with large numbers of space or tab characters.. EPSS estimates a 84.78% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
