Nothing to reproduce here.

We are.
Olaf, looks like we don't have to make bugs; They show up automatically.
:-)
Reassigning.
Comment 3 Peter Poeml 2003-04-14 21:42:53 UTC
Since Friday there is a patch for 2.0.44, which fixes
http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CAN-2003-0132

http://www.apache.org/dist/httpd/patches/apply_to_2.0.44/denial_of_service_fix.patch

The issue about file descriptor leak to child processes (such as cgi
scripts) remains. I don't know how to dissect the fairly widespread
changes in apr and apache from the other changes, and I am seriously
considering a version update... 

apache-2.0.45 runs fine, and the apr 0.9.2 prerelease that ships with it
is stable and known to be work with subversion.
Comment 4 Olaf Kirch 2003-05-26 21:37:51 UTC
dist meeting decision is to do a version upgrade. please proceed.
Comment 5 Peter Poeml 2003-05-30 20:40:42 UTC
The update will be 2.0.46, which has three more fixes:

  Security [CAN-2003-0245]: Fixed a bug that could be triggered
    remotely through mod_dav
  Security [CAN-2003-0189]: Fixed a denial-of-service
    vulnerability affecting basic authentication
  Security: forward port of buffer overflow fixes for htdigest.
