APACHE: apache-1.3.20-66.i386.rpm
Hi there, I'm using SuSE 7.3 and I patched the Apache web server to 1.3.20-66 while www.apache.org reports 1.3.26 as new bugs fix release. Is this new release available for SuSE 7.3? Also using YOU (yast2) the most recent patch is always the 1.3.20-66.... what's wrong? Thank you. Fabrizio --------------------------------- Scarica il nuovo Yahoo!

Nothing. The version we released (1.3.20-66 for 7.3) fixes the security vulnerability v a apatch instead of inflicting an apache version upgrade on users.

Hi Olaf,
thank you, this resolves my doubts about.
I wouldn't be boring but how could I check the current patch in use on my system?
If I query Apache it responds as : "Apache/1.3.20 Server at ..."
Just a note: I'm a proud user of SuSE since 6.3 release and I'd never ever change it, so my last comment on the bug fix had to be read as a such clarification.
Thank you.
Fabrizio.

try 'rpm -qi apache'
or better "rpm -q apache --changelog" Peter

You can check the changelog in the RPM, as others have pointed out. There's also some Windows based scanner tool from eEye Security which basically does the following: $ telnet server 80 POST / HTTP/1.0 Transfer-Encoding: chunked AAAAAAAAAA An unfixed server would crash and close the connection when you do this (Beware: there seem to be configurations though where this does not happen, even for an unpatched server - this is from user feedback I received. I haven't been able to reproduce this, and it seems weird, but that doesn't mean it's impossible). Olaf
