  *) SECURITY: CVE-2014-0098 (cve.mitre.org)
     Clean up cookie logging with fewer redundant string parsing passes.
     Log only cookies with a value assignment. Prevents segfaults when
     logging truncated cookies.
     [William Rowe, Ruediger Pluem, Jim Jagielski]

  *) SECURITY: CVE-2013-6438 (cve.mitre.org)
     mod_dav: Keep track of length of cdata properly when removing
     leading spaces. Eliminates a potential denial of service from
     specifically crafted DAV WRITE requests

CVE-2013-6438: http://svn.apache.org/viewvc?view=revision&revision=1576706


Reproducible: 

Steps to Reproduce:
Comment 1 David Walser 2014-03-18 18:19:24 CET
Also fixed upstream in 2.2.27 and 2.4.8.

Oden recently updated Cauldron to 2.4.9, so it's not affected.

Mageia 3 and Mageia 4 have 2.4.4 and 2.4.7, respectively, so they are.

Both of the SVN links Oden posted were for 2.2.x, so we'll need 2.4.x patches.

Comment 3 David Walser 2014-03-18 18:44:45 CET
Patched packages uploaded for Mageia 3 and Mageia 4.

Advisory:
========================

Updated apache packages fix security vulnerabilities:

Apache HTTPD before 2.4.9 was vulnerable to a denial of service in mod_dav
when handling DAV_WRITE requests (CVE-2013-6438).

Apache HTTPD before 2.4.9 was vulnerable to a denial of service when logging
cookies (CVE-2014-0098).
