-
- Updated httpd packages that include fixes for two security issues, as well
- as
- other bugs, are now available.
-
- The Apache HTTP server is a powerful, full-featured, efficient, and
- freely-available Web server.
-
- An issue has been discovered in the mod_ssl module when configured to use
- the "SSLCipherSuite" directive in directory or location context. If a
- particular location context has been configured to require a specific set
- of cipher suites, then a client will be able to access that location using
- any cipher suite allowed by the virtual host configuration. The Common
- Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the name
- CAN-2004-0885 to this issue.
-
- An issue has been discovered in the handling of white space in request
- header lines using MIME folding. A malicious client could send a carefully
- crafted request, forcing the server to consume large amounts of memory,
- leading to a denial of service. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures
- project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the name CAN-2004-0942 to this issue.
-
- Several minor bugs were also discovered, including:
-
- - In the mod_cgi module, problems that arise when CGI scripts are
- invoked from SSI pages by mod_include using the "#include virtual"
- syntax have been fixed.
-
- - In the mod_dav_fs module, problems with the handling of indirect locks
- on the S/390x platform have been fixed.
-
- Users of the Apache HTTP server who are affected by these issues should
- upgrade to these updated packages, which contain backported patches.
