---------------------------------------------------------------------- Use WSUS to deploy 3rd party patches Public BETA http://secunia.com/vulnerability_scanning/corporate/wsus_3rd_third_party_patching/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------- TITLE: Apache HTTP Server Multiple Vulnerabilities SECUNIA ADVISORY ID: SA38776 VERIFY ADVISORY: http://secunia.com/advisories/38776/ DESCRIPTION: Some vulnerabilities have been reported in Apache HTTP Server, where one has unknown impacts and others can be exploited by malicious people to gain access to potentially sensitive information or cause a DoS (Denial of Service). 1) The "ap_proxy_ajp_request()" function in modules/proxy/mod_proxy_ajp.c of the mod_proxy_ajp module returns the "HTTP_INTERNAL_SERVER_ERROR" error code when processing certain malformed requests. This can be exploited to put the backend server into an error state until the retry timeout expired by sending specially crafted requests. 2) The mod_isapi module could unload ISAPI modules before the request processing is complete, potentially leaving orphaned callback pointers behind. 3) An error exists within the header handling when processing subrequests, which can lead to sensitive information from a request being handled by the wrong thread if a multi-threaded Multi-Processing Module (MPM) is used. Vulnerabilities #1 and #3 are reported in version 2.2.0, 2.2.2, 2.2.3, 2.2.4, 2.2.5, 2.2.6, 2.2.8, 2.2.9, 2.2.11, 2.2.12, 2.2.13, and 2.2.14. SOLUTION: Fixed in httpd 2.2.15-dev. Update to version 2.2.15 as soon as it becomes available.
