Description

The mod_digest module does not properly verify the nonce of a client response by using a AuthNonce secret. This could allow a malicious user who is able to sniff network traffic to conduct a replay attack against a website using Digest protection. Note that mod_digest implements an older version of the MD5 Digest Authentication specification, which is known not to work with modern browsers. This issue does not affect mod_auth_digest. (CAN-2003-0987). This was addressed via: Red Hat Enterprise Linux version 2.1 (RHSA-2004:600/0 Red Hat Stronghold 4 (RHSA-2004:653) Stronghold 4.0 for Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS (version 2.1) (RHSA-2005:816) |
