    Linux doesn't seem vulnerable. Tested on both Apache/2.0.39 and
    Apache/1.3.20, on Redhat 7.3 and 7.2 respectively. Error log reports
    'invalid command [data], perhaps mis-spelled or defined by a module not
    included in the server configuration.'

    Where is the overflow taking place on OpenBsd?
