Ubuntu 18.04 LTS : Apache HTTP Server update (USN-4307-1)

high Nessus Plugin ID 134699

Language:

Synopsis

The remote Ubuntu host is missing a security update.

Description

As a security improvement, this update adds TLSv1.3 support to the Apache HTTP Server package in Ubuntu 18.04 LTS.

TLSv1.3 is enabled by default, and in certain environments may cause compatibility issues. The SSLProtocol directive may be used to disable TLSv1.3 in these problematic environments.

Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Ubuntu security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

Solution

Update the affected packages.
