Additionally, there are two significant security flaws with this, so much so that I decided to change the title of the bug to downplay the improvements to the rebased version, and spell out the flaws. Thanks, Joe. Works for me! Closing this ticket. Great. The update has not shipped yet - please leave the bug open, bodhi will automatically close it with a link to the advisory, as appropriate. One quick question, I know you are busy--- Is this a backported patch, or a true rebase to 2.2.9? IOW, are all the changes found in the CHANGE_LOG linked above found in this version for F8? Thanks again! Gilbert It's a rebase to 2.2.9, yup. Hello Joe, OK, I was confused why, in the F8 update, only one of the two security flaws were shown to be fixed, whereas in the F9 update, both are shown. Since they are both fixed in both versions, it's no biggie; I just wanted to be assured both were fixed. Thanks again, and have a great day! The mod_ssl/OpenSSL issue only affects specific versions of OpenSSL - only F9 is affected. Hello Joe, Ah, that's right. Thanks for the clarification, and take care! I see that this updated httpd package is in the development repo. When will it be promoted to the updates repo? Tim, I installed it from Koji, and I didn't pay attention to see if this was pushed to updates. If it has, this needs to be closed, and I will do that if it has. This message is a reminder that Fedora 8 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 8. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '8'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 8's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 8 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this bug to the applicable version. If you are unable to change the version, please add a comment here and someone will do it for you. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping Fedora 8 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2009-01-07. Fedora 8 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed. |
