Apache.httpd.mod_proxy.ap_proxy_get_worker_ex.DoS
Description
This indicates an attack attempt to exploit a Denial of Service Vulnerability in Apache Software Foundation httpd.

A remote, unauthenticated attacker could exploit this vulnerability by sending a crafted request to the target server. Successful exploitation could result in a denial of service condition on the affected service. For configurations mixing forward and reverse proxy declarations, exploitation could result in a request being directed to a declared Unix Domain Socket endpoint.
