[SECURITY] Fedora Core 6 Update: httpd-2.2.4-2.1.fc6
- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2007-615 2007-07-12 -

Product    : Fedora Core 6 Name       : httpd Version    : 2.2.4 Release    : 2.1.fc6 Summary    : Apache HTTP Server Description : The Apache HTTP Server is a powerful, efficient, and extensible web server.

- Update Information:

The Apache HTTP Server did not verify that a process was an Apache child process before sending it signals. A local attacker with the ability to run scripts on the Apache HTTP Server could manipulate the scoreboard and cause arbitrary processes to be terminated which could lead to a denial of service (CVE-2007-3304). This issue is not exploitable on Fedora if using the default SELinux targeted policy.

A flaw was found in the Apache HTTP Server mod_status module. On sites where the server-status page is publicly accessible and ExtendedStatus is enabled this could lead to a cross-site scripting attack. On Fedora the server-status page is not enabled by default and it is best practice to not make this publicly available. (CVE-2006-5752)

A bug was found in the Apache HTTP Server mod_cache module. On sites where caching is enabled, a remote attacker could send a carefully crafted request that would cause the Apache child process handling that request to crash. This could lead to a denial of service if using a threaded Multi-Processing Module. (CVE-2007-1863)

A bug was found in the mod_mem_cache module. On sites where caching is enabled using this module, an information leak could occur which revealed portions of sensitive memory to remote users. (CVE-2007-1862) - - add security fixes for CVE-2006-5752, CVE-2007-1862, CVE-2007-1863, CVE-2007-3304 (#244660)
