apache: multiple vulnerabilities in Apache HTTP server

Package(s):apache CVE #(s):CAN-2003-0192 CAN-2003-0253 CAN-2003-0254
Created:July 11, 2003 Updated:September 22, 2003
Description: The Apache Software Foundation and the Apache HTTP Server Project have announced the release of the Apache HTTP Server 2.0.47. This release fixes four security vulnerabilities:
  • Certain sequences of per-directory renegotiations and the SSLCipherSuite directive being used to upgrade from a weak ciphersuite to a strong one could result in the weak ciphersuite being used in place of the strong one. [CAN-2003-0192]

  • Certain errors returned by accept() on rarely accessed ports could cause temporal denial of service, due to a bug in the prefork MPM. [CAN-2003-0253]

  • Denial of service was caused when target host is IPv6 but ftp proxy server can't create IPv6 socket. [CAN-2003-0254]

  • The server would crash when going into an infinite loop due to too many subsequent internal redirects and nested subrequests. [VU#379828]
