Apache bug 29964 is "A remote attacker who forces an SSL connection to be aborted in a particular state may cause an Apache child process to enter an infinite loop, consuming CPU resources." Fixed upstream Aug11. This doesn't affect mod_ssl with Apache 1.3 CAN-2004-0748 Affects: FC1 CAN-2004-0748 Affects: FC2
Created attachment 103399 [details] httpd-2.0.50-ssl_engine_io.patch This patch should fix CAN-2004-0748, I currently can't find this patch it in httpd-2.0.50-5...
There will be a 2.0.51 release soon so the current plan is to wait for that and update to it, since neither of the mod_ssl issues look to be exploitable.
2.0.51 is now released which fixes: * core: CAN-2004-0747 * mod_dav_fs: CAN-2004-0809 * mod_ssl: CAN-2004-0751, CAN-2004-0748 along with an apr-util update which fixes CAN-2004-0786. Updates are being prepared.
Packages are now available for FC2 from the testing repos: http://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-test-list/2004-September/msg00610.html please post any feedback from testing these to this bug report.
2.0.51-2.7 updates issued, which include the fix for the CAN-2004-0811 regression in upstream 2.0.51.
