CVE-2018-1283 is fixed in 6 products on 1 platform, first by apache2 2.4.29-1ubuntu4.1, released March 25, 2018. It is not reported as exploited. Patch Radar priority: Routine.
In Apache httpd 2.4.0 to 2.4.29, when mod_session is configured to forward its session data to CGI applications (SessionEnv on, not the default), a remote user may influence their content by using a "Session" header. This comes from the "HTTP_SESSION" variable name used by mod_session to forward its data to CGIs, since the prefix "HTTP_" is also used by the Apache HTTP Server to pass HTTP header fields, per CGI specifications.
