Summary

A vulnerability affecting Apache HTTP Server's mod_proxy_cluster arises from the incorrect use of the directive instead of the directive. As a result, the necessary IP/host access controls are not enforced, permitting any individual with access to the host to issue MCMP requests. This could lead to the unauthorized addition, removal, or updating of nodes in the load balancing setup. It is critical to restrict access to this host, as it should not be exposed to public networks.
