What is CVE-2007-6258?

The legacy mod_jk2 module, specifically versions 2.0.3-DEV and prior, is susceptible to multiple stack-based buffer overflow vulnerabilities. These vulnerabilities occur when the module improperly handles long Host headers or Hostnames within the Host header. Remote attackers can exploit these issues to execute arbitrary code on affected systems, leading to severe security risks.
