Synopsis:	Low: mod_perl security update
Issue date:	2007-06-14
CVE Names:	CVE-2007-1349

An issue was found in the "namespace_from_uri" method of the
ModPerl::RegistryCooker class. If a server implemented a mod_perl registry
module using this method, a remote attacker requesting a carefully crafted
URI can cause resource consumption, which could lead to a denial of service
(CVE-2007-1349).
