An update that solves three vulnerabilities and has four fixes is now available. It includes one version update.
Description:
This update of apache2 and libapr1 fixes regressions and several security problems.
* CVE-2012-0031: Fixed a scoreboard corruption (shared mem segment) by child causes crash of privileged parent (invalid free()) during shutdown. * CVE-2012-0053: Fixed an issue in error responses that could expose "httpOnly" cookies when no custom ErrorDocument is specified for status code 400". * CVE-2007-6750: The "mod_reqtimeout" module was backported from Apache 2.2.21 to help mitigate the "Slowloris" Denial of Service attack.
You need to enable the "mod_reqtimeout" module in your existing apache configuration to make it effective, e.g. in the APACHE_MODULES line in /etc/sysconfig/apache2. For more detailed information, check also the README file.
Also the following bugs have been fixed:
* Fixed init script action "check-reload" to avoid potential crashes. bnc#728876 * An overlapping memcpy() was replaced by memmove() to make this work with newer glibcs. bnc#738067 bnc#741874 * libapr1: reset errno to zero to not return previous value despite good status of new operation. bnc#739783
