# CVE-2005-2970 Observation Footprint

## 48,811 Total Observations

Bitsight's Groma scanning engine maintains a continuous global survey of the public-facing Internet. Here you’ll find daily updates to an aggregated view of the Internet’s vendors, products, and vulnerabilities observed over the prior 30 days. These software observations are identified by an address, port, and domain name.

## CVE-2005-2970 Details

Memory leak in the worker MPM (worker.c) for Apache 2, in certain circumstances, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) via aborted connections, which prevents the memory for the transaction pool from being reused for other connections.

### Exploit prediction scoring system (EPSS) score for CVE-2005-2970  
EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System): EPSS predicts the likelihood that a vulnerability will be exploited in the wild. A higher percentage means a greater chance of an exploit occurring. The EPSS model produces a probability score between 0 and 1 (0 and 100%).
20.8 Probability of exploitation activity being observed over the next 30 days (96th percentile)

### CVSS score for CVE-2005-2970  
CVSS (Common Vulnerability Scoring System): An open framework owned and managed by FIRST.Org, Inc. that assigns a numerical score from 0 to 10 to software vulnerabilities to indicate their severity.

## Bitsight Data Discovery and Continuous Threat Scanning

Bitsight, the leading provider in Cyber Risk Management, introduced the next-generation internet scanner Bitsight Groma in May 2024. This technology continuously scans the entire internet to discover assets, collect asset attribution evidence, and identify an ever-growing set of security observations, such as vulnerabilities and misconfigurations. Groma’s scanning activities presently encompass:

- 40 million-plus monitored organizations
- 250 million-plus host names
- 4 billion-plus routable IPv4 and IPv6 addresses

Greynoise’s recent study testifies the speed of Bitsight Groma.
