CVE-2016-4979 (http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2016-4979):
  The Apache HTTP Server 2.4.18 through 2.4.20, when mod_http2 and mod_ssl are
  enabled, does not properly recognize the "SSLVerifyClient require" directive
  for HTTP/2 request authorization, which allows remote attackers to bypass
  intended access restrictions by leveraging the ability to send multiple
  requests over a single connection and aborting a renegotiation.
Comment 12 Aaron Bauman (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2016-07-18 02:45:27 UTC 
Added to existing GLSA.
Comment 13 Aaron Bauman (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2016-07-18 06:03:16 UTC 
@maintainer(s), =www-servers/apache-2.4.20 is vulnerable and needs to be cleaned.  This does not effect 2.2.31 currently in the tree.
Comment 14 Yury German Gentoo Infrastructure gentoo-dev 2016-09-26 03:02:21 UTC 
Maintainer(s), please drop the vulnerable version(s).
