CVE-2008-0455 (http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2008-0455):
  Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the mod_negotiation module in the
  Apache HTTP Server 2.2.6 and earlier in the 2.2.x series, 2.0.61 and earlier
  in the 2.0.x series, and 1.3.39 and earlier in the 1.3.x series allows remote
  authenticated users to inject arbitrary web script or HTML by uploading a
  file with a name containing XSS sequences and a file extension, which leads
  to injection within a (1) "406 Not Acceptable" or (2) "300 Multiple Choices"
  HTTP response when the extension is omitted in a request for the file.

CVE-2008-0456 (http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2008-0456):
  CRLF injection vulnerability in the mod_negotiation module in the Apache HTTP
  Server 2.2.6 and earlier in the 2.2.x series, 2.0.61 and earlier in the 2.0.x
  series, and 1.3.39 and earlier in the 1.3.x series allows remote
  authenticated users to inject arbitrary HTTP headers and conduct HTTP
  response splitting attacks by uploading a file with a multi-line name
  containing HTTP header sequences and a file extension, which leads to
  injection within a (1) "406 Not Acceptable" or (2) "300 Multiple Choices"
  HTTP response when the extension is omitted in a request for the file.

Apache herd, is this already fixed in our stable 2.2.8? I could not find any info on that.

both CVEs affect <=2.2.6 only, only arm s390 and sh missing, but already requested in bug 205195

We're they stable at the time of filing this bug? If that is the case it should be closed as invalid. Otherwise I guess we should proceed to glsa? status.

Our last GLSA marks 2.2.6 as secure, so we can GLSA this together with the other bugs fixed in 2.2.8. A YES for me.
