Description Chris Ricker 2002-02-28 17:49:13 UTC
See the bugtraq advisory "mod_ssl Buffer Overflow Condition (Update Available)".

mod_ssl releases prior to 2.8.7-1.3.23 use openssl in an overflowable fashion.

rev'ing these will also require rev of apache

Any idea when to expect errata on this?  Has anyone confirmed that it is
exploitable?

Comment 2 Chris Ricker 2002-03-08 01:05:18 UTC
errata just released with a backported fix....  I'm closing this.
