Het ontwikkelteam van het Apache HTTP Server Project heeft onlangs een nieuwe versie uitgegeven van hun Apache HTTP-server. Het versienummer is inmiddels aangekomen bij 2.0.53 en kent een tweetal gedichte beveilingslekken en een berg aan bugfixes. Het meegeleverde changelog ziet er dan ook als volgt uit:
Changes with Apache 2.0.53:[break]Op dit moment is alleen nog de source beschikbaar, de binaries voor onder andere het Windows-platform zijn nog in ontwikkeling.
- SECURITY: CAN-2004-0942
Fix for memory consumption DoS in handling of MIME folded request headers.- SECURITY: CAN-2004-0885
mod_ssl: Fix a bug which allowed an SSLCipherSuite setting to be bypassed during an SSL renegotiation. PR 31505.- Fix --with-apr=/usr and/or --with-apr-util=/usr. PR 29740.
- mod_proxy: Fix ProxyRemoteMatch directive. PR 33170.
- mod_proxy: Respect errors reported by pre_connection hooks.
- --with-module can now take more than one module to be statically linked: --with-module=
: , : ,... If the -subdirectory doesn't exist it will be created and populated with a standard Makefile.in. [Erik Abele] - Fix the RPM spec file so that an RPM build now works. An RPM build now requires system installations of APR and APR-util. Remove some arbitrary moving around of binaries - the RPM now maps to the ASF build of httpd.
- mod_dumpio, an I/O logging/dumping module, added to the modules/expermimental subdirectory.
- mod_auth_ldap: Handle the inconsistent way in which the MS LDAP library handles special characters. PR 24437.
- Win32 MPM: Correct typo in debugging output.
- conf: Remove AddDefaultCharset from the default configuration because setting a site-wide default does more harm than good. PR 23421.
- Add charset to example CGI scripts.
- mod_ssl: fail quickly if SSL connection is aborted rather than making many doomed ap_pass_brigade calls. PR 32699.
- Remove compiled-in upper limit on LimitRequestFieldSize.
- Start keeping track of time-taken-to-process-request again for mod_status if ExtendedStatus is enabled.
- mod_proxy: Handle client-aborted connections correctly. PR 32443.
- Fix handling of files >2Gb on all platforms (or builds) where apr_off_t is larger than apr_size_t. PR 28898.
- mod_include: Fix bug which could truncate variable expansions of N*64 characters by one byte. PR 32985.
- Correct handling of certain bucket types in ap_save_brigade, fixing possible segfaults in mod_cgi with #include virtual. PR 31247.
- Allow for the use of --with-module=foo:bar where the ./modules/foo directory is local only. Assumes, of course, that the required files are in ./modules/foo, but makes it easier to statically build/log "external" modules.
- Util_ldap: Implemented the util_ldap_cache_getuserdn() API so that ldap authorization only modules have access to the util_ldap user cache without having to require ldap authentication as well. PR 31898.
- mod_auth_ldap: Added the directive "Requires ldap-attribute" that allows the module to only authorize a user if the attribute value specified matches the value of the user object. PR 31913
- mod_ssl: Fail at startup rather than segfault at runtime if a client cert is configured with an encrypted private key. PR 24030.
- apxs: fix handling of -Wc/-Wl and "-o mod_foo.so". PR 31448
- mod_ldap: Fix format strings to use %APR_PID_T_FMT instead of %d.
- mod_cache: CacheDisable will only disable the URLs it was meant to disable, not all caching. PR 31128.
- mod_cache: Try to correctly follow RFC 2616 13.3 on validating stale cache responses.
- mod_rewrite: Handle per-location rules when r->filename is unset. Previously this would segfault or simply not match as expected, depending on the platform.
- mod_rewrite: Fix 0 bytes write into random memory position. PR 31036.
- mod_disk_cache: Do not store aborted content. PR 21492.
- mod_disk_cache: Correctly store cached content type. PR 30278.
- mod_ldap: prevent the possiblity of an infinite loop in the LDAP statistics display. PR 29216.
- mod_ldap: fix a bogus error message to tell the user which file is causing a potential problem with the LDAP shared memory cache. PR 31431
- mod_disk_cache: Do not store hop-by-hop headers.
- Fix the re-linking issue when purging elements from the LDAP cache. PR 24801.
- mod_disk_cache: Fix races in saving responses.
- Fix Expires handling in mod_cache.
- Alter mod_expires to run at a different filter priority to allow proper Expires storage by mod_cache.
