Alpine: multiple apache2 packages: security update to 2.4.53-r0

critical Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 423658

Description

There are packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities referenced in the following CVEs:

- A carefully crafted request body can cause a read to a random memory area which could cause the process to
crash. This issue affects Apache HTTP Server 2.4.52 and earlier. (CVE-2022-22719)

- Apache HTTP Server 2.4.52 and earlier fails to close inbound connection when errors are encountered
discarding the request body, exposing the server to HTTP Request Smuggling (CVE-2022-22720)

- If LimitXMLRequestBody is set to allow request bodies larger than 350MB (defaults to 1M) on 32 bit systems
an integer overflow happens which later causes out of bounds writes. This issue affects Apache HTTP Server
2.4.52 and earlier. (CVE-2022-22721)

- Out-of-bounds Write vulnerability in mod_sed of Apache HTTP Server allows an attacker to overwrite heap
memory with possibly attacker provided data. This issue affects Apache HTTP Server 2.4 version 2.4.52 and
prior versions. (CVE-2022-23943)
