Red Hat Security Advisory
Synopsis: Updated httpd packages fix Apache security vulnerabilities
Advisory ID: RHSA-2003:240-01
Issue date: 2003-09-04

Product: Red Hat Linux
Keywords: Apache httpd ASF APR

CVE Names: CAN-2003-0192 CAN-2003-0253 CAN-2003-0254
- ---------------------------------------------------------------------
1. Topic:
Updated httpd packages that fix several minor security issues are now
available for Red Hat Linux 8.0 and 9.
2. Relevant releases/architectures:
Red Hat Linux 8.0 - i386
Red Hat Linux 9 - i386
3. Problem description:
The Apache HTTP server is a powerful, full-featured, efficient, and
freely-available Web server.
Ben Laurie found a bug in the optional renegotiation code in mod_ssl
included with Apache 2 versions 2.0.35 through 2.0.46 that can cause
cipher suite restrictions to be ignored. This is triggered if
optional renegotiation is used (SSLOptions +OptRenegotiate) along
with verification of client certificates and a change to the cipher
suite over the renegotiation. The Common Vulnerabilities and
Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the name CAN-2003-0192
to this issue.
Yoshioka Tsuneo found that unpatched versions of Apache 2 versions
2.0.35 to 2.0.46 have a bug that can cause a remote Denial of
Service. When a client requests that proxy ftp connect to a ftp
server with an IPv6 address, and the proxy is unable to create an
IPv6 socket, an infinite loop occurs. The Common Vulnerabilities and
Exposures project has assigned the name CAN-2003-0254 to this issue.
Saheed Akhtar found that unpatched Apache 2 versions 2.0.35 through
2.0.46 have a bug in the prefork MPM when handling accept errors. In
a server with multiple listening sockets, a certain error returned by
accept() on a rarely-accessed port can cause a temporary denial of
service. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project has
assigned the name CAN-2003-0253 to this issue.
It is possible for Apache 2 to get into an infinite loop handling
internal redirects and nested subrequests. A patch for this issue
adds the new LimitInternalRecursion directive.
All users of the Apache HTTP Web Server are advised to upgrade to the
applicable errata packages, which contain back-ported fixes correcting
these issues, and are applied to Apache version 2.0.40.
After the errata packages are installed, restart the Web service by
running (as root) the following command:
/sbin/service httpd restart
4. Solution:
Before applying this update, make sure all previously released errata
relevant to your system have been applied.
To update all RPMs for your particular architecture, run:
rpm -Fvh [filenames]
where [filenames] is a list of the RPMs you wish to upgrade. Only
those RPMs which are currently installed will be updated. Those RPMs
which are not installed but included in the list will not be updated.
Note that you can also use wildcards (*.rpm) if your current
directory *only* contains the desired RPMs.
Please note that this update is also available via Red Hat Network.
Many people find this an easier way to apply updates. To use Red Hat
Network, launch the Red Hat Update Agent with the following command:
up2date
This will start an interactive process that will result in the
appropriate RPMs being upgraded on your system.
If up2date fails to connect to Red Hat Network due to SSL Certificate
Errors, you need to install a version of the up2date client with an
updated certificate. The latest version of up2date is available
from the Red Hat FTP site and may also be downloaded directly from
the RHN website:
https://rhn.redhat.com/help/latest-up2date.pxt
