CVE-2011-1176 (http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2011-1176): The configuration merger in itk.c in the Steinar H. Gunderson mpm-itk Multi-Processing Module 2.2.11-01 and 2.2.11-02 for the Apache HTTP Server does not properly handle certain configuration sections that specify NiceValue but not AssignUserID, which might allow remote attackers to gain privileges by leveraging the root uid and root gid of an mpm-itk process. @apache, you thoughts on this? Sorry I forgot to notice this, but we've fixed this issue during previous bump. So this is fixed in 2.2.20 (bug 380475). (In reply to comment #3) > Sorry I forgot to notice this, but we've fixed this issue during previous bump. > So this is fixed in 2.2.20 (bug 380475). Great, thank you. Closing noglsa. |
