Subject: Security issue in Apache 2.4.27 ("optionsbleed")
Date: Tue, 19 Sep 2017 17:14:09 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20170919171409.4efbd4e2.peter.mueller@link38.eu> (raw)
[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 734 bytes --]
Hello,
a security issue has been found in Apache 2.4.27, which is
at the moment scheduled for the "next" branch in IPFire.
It is a memory leak (called "optionsbleed"), more details
are available here:
* https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2017-9798
* https://heise.de/-3835313 (german only)
A patch has been published on Apache's SVN repository (but
I am not sure how to add it to the LFS build file :-) ):
https://svn.apache.org/viewvc/httpd/httpd/branches/2.4.x/server/core.c?r1=1805223&r2=1807754&pathrev=1807754&view=patch
Although IPFire is not vulnerable as far as I know, it
might be good to deploy this. Affects the 2.2.x series, too.
Just in case anyone is interested.
Best regards,
Peter Müller
