MiracleLinux 3 : httpd-2.2.3-85.0.1.AXS3 (AXSA:2014-299:01)

high Nessus Plugin ID 289157

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:2014-299:01 advisory.

 The Apache HTTP Server is a powerful, efficient, and extensible web server.
 Security issues fixed with this release:
 CVE-2013-6438 The dav_xml_get_cdata function in main/util.c in the mod_dav module in the Apache HTTP Server before 2.4.8 does not properly remove whitespace characters from CDATA sections, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (daemon crash) via a crafted DAV WRITE request.
 CVE-2014-0098 The log_cookie function in mod_log_config.c in the mod_log_config module in the Apache HTTP Server before 2.4.8 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (segmentation fault and daemon crash) via a crafted cookie that is not properly handled during truncation.
 Fixed bugs:
 Fixed a bug in the mod_proxy_httpd module where, even if a specific VirtualHost error log file configured, the error message proxy: error reading response was logged into the global error log file.
 This has been fixed.

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.
