CVE-2026-89282 Details
Description
The Apache Lounge Windows distribution of Apache HTTP Server build contains an insecure installation directory permissions vulnerability through its default install directory on C:\, which inherits write access for Authenticated Users.
A vulnerability exists in the Apache Lounge Windows distribution of Apache HTTP Server due to insecure permissions in the default installation directory. The directory, typically located at C:\Apache24, inherits write access for Authenticated Users, allowing them to modify files. This issue arises because Windows grants such permissions by default to directories created under the C:\ root.
To address this vulnerability, it's recommended to revoke the modify permissions for Authenticated Users on the Apache installation directory. This can be done using the 'icacls' command to remove the explicit grants for 'Authenticated Users' and break the inheritance of permissions from the parent directory.
