3. Description:

 

The Apache HTTP Server is a popular Web server.

 

A flaw was found in the mod_proxy Apache module. An attacker in control of

a Web server to which requests were being proxied could have caused a

limited denial of service due to CPU consumption and stack exhaustion.

(CVE-2008-2364)

 

A flaw was found in the mod_proxy_ftp Apache module. If Apache was

configured to support FTP-over-HTTP proxying, a remote attacker could have

performed a cross-site scripting attack. (CVE-2008-2939)

 

In addition, these updated packages fix a bug found in the handling of the

"ProxyRemoteMatch" directive in the Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4 httpd

packages. This bug is not present in the Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3 or Red

Hat Enterprise Linux 5 packages.

 

Users of httpd should upgrade to these updated packages, which contain

backported patches to correct these issues.

 

4. Solution:

 

Before applying this update, make sure that all previously-released

errata relevant to your system have been applied.

 

This update is available via Red Hat Network. Details on how to use

the Red Hat Network to apply this update are available at

http://kbase.redhat.com/faq/FAQ_58_10188

 

5. Bugs fixed (http://bugzilla.redhat.com/):

 

451615 - CVE-2008-2364 httpd: mod_proxy_http DoS via excessive interim responses from the origin server

458250 - CVE-2008-2939 httpd: mod_proxy_ftp globbing XSS
