Apache disclosed three HTTP Server bugs on November 11, including a critical mod_http2 issue that can lead to remote code execution; no fixes are stated.

On November 11, Eric Covener posted three Apache HTTP Server advisories to oss-security. CVE-2026-119618, rated critical, is an assign_headers synchronization flaw in mod_http2 that can corrupt the heap and lead to remote code execution; it affects server releases 2.4.55 through 2.4.70 and GitHub mod_h2 2.0.8 through 2.0.42. CVE-2026-106023, rated important, is a mod_md NULL pointer dereference that can crash a child process during HTTP request processing. CVE-2026-109163, rated low, is a one-byte stack overwrite in mod_vhost_alias following CVE-2026-63292. None of the posts states a fixed release or exploitation. oss-security subject lines and bodies disagree on whether 2.4.70 is affected by the mod_md and mod_vhost_alias issues.
