Summary:NOSUMMARY
Description:Description:

The remote host is missing an update to apache
announced via advisory MDKSA-2002:039-1.

A Denial of Service attack was discovered by Mark Litchfield in the
Apache webserver. As well, while investigating this problem, the
Apache Software Foundation discovered that the code for handling
invalid requests that use chunked encoding may also allow arbitrary
code to be executed on 64bit architectures.

All versions of Apache prior to 1.3.26 and 2.0.37 are vulnerable to
this problem. This update provides patched versions of Apache for the
remaining supported Mandrake Linux versions.

Affected versions: 7.1, 7.2, 8.0, 8.1, 8.2, Corporate Server 1.0.1,
Single Network Firewall 7.2


Solution:
To upgrade automatically use MandrakeUpdate or urpmi. The verification
of md5 checksums and GPG signatures is performed automatically for you.
