Description Matthias Geerdsen (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-09-02 07:48:18 UTC
Hope this isn't a dupe again ;-) but I couldn't find the patch from the apache bugzilla being used.
http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=29964

Debian fixed it with this upload on 23 Aug:
"apache2 (2.0.50-11) unstable; urgency=high
 .
   * Add two patches from upstream to address two vulnerabilities in mod_ssl:
     - CAN-2004-0748 is a potential infinite loop in the SSL input filter
       which can be triggered by an aborted connection.
     - CAN-2004-0751 is a potential segfault in the SSL input filter which
       can be triggered by the response to request which is proxied to a
       remote SSL server.
"

The RH advisory (errata) reads as follows:

Updated httpd packages fix mod_ssl security flaw
Advisory: 	RHSA-2004:349-10
Last updated on: 	2004-09-01
CVEs (cve.mitre.org): 	CAN-2004-0748

[...]

Details:

Updated httpd packages that include a security fix for mod_ssl and various
enhancements are now available.

The Apache HTTP server is a powerful, full-featured, efficient, and
freely-available Web server.

An input filter bug in mod_ssl was discovered in Apache httpd version
2.0.50 and earlier. A remote attacker could force an SSL connection to be
aborted in a particular state and cause an Apache child process to enter an
infinite loop, consuming CPU resources. The Common Vulnerabilities and
Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the name CAN-2004-0748 to
this issue.

Additionally, this update includes the following enhancements and bug fixes:

Zul: this one if for you. 2.0.50-r1 is needed :)

Thanks to ferringb's help to work around a repoman bug, apache-2.0.50-r1 is now in the tree, and ready for the arch teams to do their stuff.

Best regards,
Stu

This only fixed CAN-2004-0748 afaik. There is still CAN-2004-0751 as mentioned in the debian changelog and this Secunia advisory: http://secunia.com/advisories/12434/

Debian seems to patch CAN-2004-0751 with "diff -u -r1.125 -r1.126" as proposed in 
http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=30134
Comment 14 Sune Kloppenborg Jeppesen (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-09-09 05:08:22 UTC
apache-bugs please confirm that CAN-2004-0751 is also fixed or apply patches.

Secunia propose these two patches to fix the issues:

http://cvs.apache.org/viewcvs.cgi/httpd-2.0/modules/ssl/ssl_engine_io.c?r1=1.121&r2=1.122

You've got around 450kB uncompressed patches in the tree ! (and that's only the sum of those files which are larger than 20kb)

x86, please also mark net-www/mod_dav-1.0.3-r2 stable for bug #63948, so that an GLSA for these issues can be sent, since this bug was opened 2004-09-02

Comment 30 Stuart Herbert (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-09-15 15:32:21 UTC
apache-2.0.51 is now in the tree.  We need another round of stable marking, and I suggest the GLSA goes out suggesting everyone goes from .50 straight to .51.

Best regards,
Stu
Comment 31 Matthias Geerdsen (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-09-16 00:36:44 UTC
Welcome to a new round of stable marking...
Thanks to bug #64145 it's time for a run on apache-2.0.51.

current KEYWORDS="~alpha ~amd64 ~arm ~hppa ~ia64 ~mips ~ppc ~ppc64 ~sparc ~x86"
target KEYWORDS="alpha amd64 arm hppa ia64 mips ppc  ppc64 sparc s390 x86"


Better hurry before the next one comes... ;-)
Comment 32 Jochen Maes (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-09-16 01:55:46 UTC
stable on ppc
Comment 33 Stuart Herbert (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-09-16 03:35:54 UTC
Stable on x86.

Kugelfang reports that -51 doesn't start on amd64, but he's had no time to investigate why.  So atm we don't know whether it's a config problem or a code problem.

Best regards,
Stu
Comment 34 Gustavo Zacarias (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-09-16 09:08:26 UTC
