                Mandrake Linux Security Update Advisory
 _______________________________________________________________________

 Package name:           apache2
 Advisory ID:            MDKSA-2003:096-1
 Date:                   October 24th, 2003
 Original Advisory Date: September 26th, 2003
 Affected versions:	 9.1, 9.2
 ______________________________________________________________________

 Problem Description:

 A problem was discovered in Apache2 where CGI scripts that output more
 than 4k of output to STDERR will hang the script's execution which can
 cause a Denial of Service on the httpd process because it is waiting
 for more input from the CGI that is not forthcoming due to the locked
 write() call in mod_cgi.
 
 On systems that use scripts that output more than 4k to STDERR, this
 could cause httpd processes to hang and once the maximum connection
 limit is reached, Apache will no longer respond to requests. 
 
 The updated packages provided use the latest mod_cgi.c from the Apache
 2.1 CVS version.
 
 Users may have to restart apache by hand after the upgrade by issuing
 a "service httpd restart".
  
Update:

 The previous update introduced an experimental mod_cgi.c that while
 fixing the deadlock did not do so in a correct manner and it likewise
 introduced new problems with other scripts.
 
 These packages roll back to the original mod_cgi.c until such a time as
 the apache team have a proper fix in place.  Both Mandrake Linux 9.1
 and 9.2 are affected with this problem.
 
 Likewise, a problem was discovered in the default mod_proxy
 configuration which created an open proxy.  Users who have installed
 mod_perl also have mod_proxy installed due to dependencies and may
 unknowingly have allowed spammers to use their MTA via the wide-open
 mod_proxy settings.
 
 MandrakeSoft encourages all users to upgrade to these new packages
 immediately.
