Description Matthias Geerdsen (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-07-17 04:57:14 UTC 
From the Announcement on modssl-users:


    * From: Ralf S. Engelschall
    * Subject: [ANNOUNCE] mod_ssl 2.8.19 for Apache 1.3.31
    * Date: Fri, 16 Jul 2004 13:45:46 -0700 

We've today found an ssl_log() related format string vulnerability in
the mod_proxy hook functions of mod_ssl for Apache 1.3.x (mod_ssl for
Apache 2.x is not affected). A mod_ssl 2.8.19 for Apache 1.3.31 was
created which fixes this potential security hole.

Get mod_ssl-2.8.19-1.3.31.tar.gz from:

o http://www.modssl.org/source/
o  ftp://ftp.modssl.org/source/

Yours,
                                       Ralf S. Engelschall
