Fixed In Version: httpd-2.2.3-65.el5_8.3
Doc Type: Bug Fix
Doc Text:
Due to a bug in the "mod_cache" module, the "304 Not Modified" response from an origin server was not properly handled when a cached entity was being refreshed. Consequently, the entity could be returned to the HTTP client with incorrect headers. With this update, the "mod_cache" module has been modified to correctly handle headers in the "304 Not Modified" response. The cached entity is now returned with correct headers in this scenario.
