MiracleLinux 3 : httpd-2.2.3-43.3.0.1.AXS3 (AXSA:2010-433:03)

high Nessus Plugin ID 284262

Synopsis

The remote MiracleLinux host is missing one or more security updates.

Description

The remote MiracleLinux 3 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the AXSA:2010-433:03 advisory.

The Apache HTTP Server is a powerful, efficient, and extensible web server.
Security issues fixed with this release;
CVE-2010-1452 The (1) mod_cache and (2) mod_dav modules in the Apache HTTP Server 2.2.x before 2.2.16 allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (process crash) via a request that lacks a path.
CVE-2010-2791 mod_proxy in httpd in Apache HTTP Server 2.2.9, when running on Unix, does not close the backend connection if a timeout occurs when reading a response from a persistent connection, which allows remote attackers to obtain a potentially sensitive response intended for a different client in opportunistic circumstances via a normal HTTP request. NOTE: this is the same issue as CVE-2010-2068, but for a different OS and set of affected versions.
Fixed bugs:
- upgraded mod_deflate to the newer upstream version from Apache HTTP Server 2.2.15 to fix numerous issues in the INFLATE filter.
- corrupted response if mod_filter applied the DEFLATE filter to a resource requiring a subrequest with an internal redirect.
- the OID() function in the mod_ssl 'SSLRequire' directive failed to properly evaluate extensions of an unknown type.

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the MiracleLinux security advisory.

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Update the affected packages.
