aru Posted June 3, 2003 Report Share Posted June 3, 2003 MandrakeSoft Security Advisory MDKSA-2003:063-1 : apache2 June 2nd, 2003 Updated apache2 packages fix vulnerabilities Two vulnerabilities were discovered in the Apache web server that affect all 2.x versions prior to 2.0.46. The first, discovered by John Hughes, is a build system problem that allows remote attackers to prevent access to authenticated content when a threaded server is used. This only affects versions of Apache compiled with threaded server "httpd.worker", which is not the default for Mandrake Linux. The second vulnerability, discovered by iDefense, allows remote attackers to cause a DoS (Denial of Service) condition and may also allow the execution of arbitrary code. The provided packages include back-ported fixes to correct these vulnerabilities and MandrakeSoft encourages all users to upgrade immediately. Update: The previous update mistakenly listed apache-conf packages which were never included, nor intended to be included, as part of the update. The released versions of Mandrake GNU/Linux affected are: 9.1 [*] 9.1/PPC Full information about this advisory, including the updated packages, is available at: www.mandrakesecure.net/en/advisories/advisory.php?name=MDKSA-2003:063-1 Other references: http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?n...e=CAN-2003-0189 http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?n...e=CAN-2003-0245 Posted automatically by aru (mdksec2mub v0.0.6) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
