news 28 Posted March 29, 2014 -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 [slackware-security] httpd (SSA:2014-086-02) New httpd packages are available for Slackware 14.0, 14.1, and -current to fix security issues. Here are the details from the Slackware 14.1 ChangeLog: +--------------------------+ patches/packages/httpd-2.4.9-i486-1_slack14.1.txz: Upgraded. This update addresses two security issues. Segfaults with truncated cookie logging. mod_log_config: Prevent segfaults when logging truncated cookies. Clean up the cookie logging parser to recognize only the cookie=value pairs, not valueless cookies. mod_dav: Keep track of length of cdata properly when removing leading spaces. Eliminates a potential denial of service from specifically crafted DAV WRITE requests.
