Just thought this would be of interest.

This bug can be triggered remotely by sending a carefully crafted invalid request. This functionality is enabled by default.

As I understand it, all Apache servers in the 1.x and 2.x series are affected to some extent with windows being more prevalent.

My understanding is that Unix 64bit and Windows are affected but Unix 32 bit are not.
