Description David Walser 2016-07-05 20:15:44 CEST

A security issue in Apache HTTPD has been announced today (July 5):
http://openwall.com/lists/oss-security/2016/07/05/5

This sounds like a serious issue for organizations that are using client certificates to access (usually internal) websites.

The issue has been fixed upstream in 2.4.23, and r1750779 in their SVN.

Mageia 5 is not affected.

I pushed 2.4.23 to cauldron along with fixes for systemd 230 detection
