+	  <p>Apache httpd allows remote attackers to read secret data from
+	    process memory if the Limit directive can be set in a user's
+	    .htaccess file, or if httpd.conf has certain misconfigurations,
+	    aka Optionsbleed. This affects the Apache HTTP Server through
+	    2.2.34 and 2.4.x through 2.4.27. The attacker sends an
+	    unauthenticated OPTIONS HTTP request when attempting to read
+	    secret data.  This is a use-after-free issue and thus secret data
+	    is not always sent, and the specific data depends on many factors
+	    including configuration. Exploitation with .htaccess can be
+	    blocked with a patch to the ap_limit_section function in
+	    server/core.c.</p>
