openSUSE Security Update: Security update for apache2 ______________________________________________________________________________ Announcement ID: openSUSE-SU-2018:2856-1 Rating: moderate References: #1016715 #1104826 Cross-References: CVE-2016-4975 CVE-2016-8743 Affected Products: openSUSE Leap 42.3 ______________________________________________________________________________ An update that fixes two vulnerabilities is now available. Description: This update for apache2 fixes the following issues: Security issues fixed: - CVE-2016-8743: Fixed liberal whitespace interpretation accepted from requests and sent in response lines and headers. Accepting these different behaviors represented a security concern when httpd participates in any chain of proxies or interacts with back-end application servers, either through mod_proxy or using conventional CGI mechanisms, and may result in request smuggling, response splitting and cache pollution. (bsc#1016715) - CVE-2016-4975: Fixed possible CRLF injection allowing HTTP response splitting attacks for sites which use mod_userdir. This issue was mitigated by changes which prohibit CR or LF injection into the "Location" or other outbound header key or value. (bsc#1104826) This update was imported from the SUSE:SLE-12-SP2:Update update project.
