From: Mark J Cox <mjc@redhat.com> To: vendor-sec@lst.de cc: vulteam@niscc.gov.uk Subject: [vendor-sec] CAN-2004-0811: Apache 2.0.51 authentication bypass A number of users have reported that after upgrading to 2.0.51 their password protected pages have been served without requiring authentication. This is due to a change made between 2.0.50 and 2.0.51 which broke the merging of the Satisfy directive. This affects any installation using the "Satisfy" directive, and is CAN-2004-0811. If you have issued 2.0.51 updates using the official Apache 2.0.51 tarball you are vulnerable to this issue and should apply the patch for CAN-2004-0811 below. The ASF is looking at producing a 2.0.52 within the next day or two that includes this fix. If you used the patches we supplied for the last security fixes and did a backported update then this issue will not affect you. http://www.apache.org/dist/httpd/patches/apply_to_2.0.51/CAN-2004-0811.patch This issue is public. NISCC, please can you forward this message on to the list of folks you notify about Apache issues. Thanks, Mark -- Mark J Cox / Red Hat Security Response Team

Not a normal occurance at the Apache Software Foundation... 2.0.52 will be released today. Luckily, we don't have 2.0.51 and its bug (it was released at the fifteenth).
thanks for verifying peter!
