+ <background>
+ <p>
+ The Apache HTTP server is one of the most popular web servers on the
+ Internet.
+ </p>
+ </background>
+ <description>
+ <p>
+ Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in Apache:
+ </p>
+ <ul>
+ <li>
+ Dustin Kirkland reported that the mod_ssl module can leak memory when
+ the client reports support for a compression algorithm (CVE-2008-1678).
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ Ryujiro Shibuya reported that the ap_proxy_http_process_response()
+ function in the mod_proxy module does not limit the number of forwarded
+ interim responses (CVE-2008-2364).
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ sp3x of SecurityReason reported a Cross-Site Request Forgery
+ vulnerability in the balancer-manager in the mod_proxy_balancer module
+ (CVE-2007-6420).
+ </li>
+ </ul>
+ </description>
+ <impact type="normal">
+ <p>
+ A remote attacker could exploit these vulnerabilities by connecting to
+ an Apache httpd, by causing an Apache proxy server to connect to a
+ malicious server, or by enticing a balancer administrator to connect to
+ a specially-crafted URL, resulting in a Denial of Service of the Apache
+ daemon.
+ </p>
+ </impact>
+ <workaround>
+ <p>
+ There is no known workaround at this time.
+ </p>
+ </workaround>
+ <resolution>
+ <p>
+ All Apache users should upgrade to the latest version:
+ </p>
+ <code>
+ # emerge --sync
+ # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=www-servers/apache-2.2.9"</code>
+ </resolution>
