Description Tomas Hoger 2011-09-08 08:00:45 UTC
+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #736592 +++

Description of problem:
RHSA-2011:1245 provided a fix for CVE-2011-3192, which significantly changed Ranges handling code and resulted in few regressions:

suffix-byte-range-spec ("-" suffix-length) were handled as equivalent to 0-suffix-length, resulting in the first suffix-length + 1 bytes being returned, rather than last suffix-length bytes.  Reported upstream in:
https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=51748

httpd did not return 416 error when all specified ranges were unsatisfiable. This can happen if range specification is syntactically incorrect, or if first-byte-pos is behind the end of the file.

The fix as applied to upstream 2.2.x SVN branch:
http://svn.apache.org/viewvc?view=revision&revision=1165607
