| 18 | Synopsis |
| 19 | ======== |
| 20 | |
| 21 | Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in Apache, possibly |
| 22 | resulting in a Denial of Service or the disclosure of sensitive |
| 23 | information. |
| 24 | |
| 25 | Background |
| 26 | ========== |
| 27 | |
| 28 | The Apache HTTP server is one of the most popular web servers on the |
| 29 | Internet. |
| 30 | |
| 31 | Affected packages |
| 32 | ================= |
| 33 | |
| 34 | ------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| 35 | Package / Vulnerable / Unaffected |
| 36 | ------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| 37 | 1 www-servers/apache < 2.2.6 *>= 2.0.59-r5 |
| 38 | >= 2.2.6 |
| 39 | |
| 40 | Description |
| 41 | =========== |
| 42 | |
| 43 | Multiple cross-site scripting vulnerabilities have been discovered in |
| 44 | mod_status and mod_autoindex (CVE-2006-5752, CVE-2007-4465). An error |
| 45 | has been discovered in the recall_headers() function in mod_mem_cache |
| 46 | (CVE-2007-1862). The mod_cache module does not properly sanitize |
| 47 | requests before processing them (CVE-2007-1863). The Prefork module |
| 48 | does not properly check PID values before sending signals |
| 49 | (CVE-2007-3304). The mod_proxy module does not correctly check headers |
| 50 | before processing them (CVE-2007-3847). |
| 51 | |
| 52 | Impact |
| 53 | ====== |
| 54 | |
| 55 | A remote attacker could exploit one of these vulnerabilities to inject |
| 56 | arbitrary script or HTML content, obtain sensitive information or cause |
| 57 | a Denial of Service. |
| 58 | |
| 59 | Workaround |
| 60 | ========== |
| 61 | |
| 62 | There is no known workaround at this time. |
| 63 | |
| 64 | Resolution |
| 65 | ========== |
| 66 | |
| 67 | All Apache users should upgrade to the latest version: |
| 68 | |
| 69 | # emerge --sync |
| 70 | # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=www-servers/apache-2.0.59-r5" |
