Fedora Core 2 : httpd-2.0.50-2.1 (2004-204)

high Nessus Plugin ID 13735

Synopsis

The remote Fedora Core host is missing a security update.

Description

This update includes the latest stable release of Apache httpd 2.0, including security fixes for a remotely triggerable memory leak (CVE-2004-0493), and a buffer overflow in mod_ssl which can be triggered only by a (trusted) client certificate with a long subject DN field (CVE-2004-0488).

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

Solution

Update the affected packages.
