httpd: authentication bypass

Package(s):httpd CVE #(s):CVE-2016-4979
Created:July 12, 2016 Updated:July 18, 2016
Description: From the CVE entry:

The Apache HTTP Server 2.4.18 through 2.4.20, when mod_http2 and mod_ssl are enabled, does not properly recognize the "SSLVerifyClient require" directive for HTTP/2 request authorization, which allows remote attackers to bypass intended access restrictions by leveraging the ability to send multiple requests over a single connection and aborting a renegotiation.
