| Description: | Summary:
The remote host is missing an update for the 'httpd' package(s) announced via the SSA:2019-022-01 advisory.
Vulnerability Insight:
New httpd packages are available for Slackware 14.0, 14.1, 14.2, and -current to
fix security issues.
Here are the details from the Slackware 14.2 ChangeLog:
+--------------------------+
patches/packages/httpd-2.4.38-i586-1_slack14.2.txz: Upgraded.
This release contains security fixes and improvements.
mod_session: mod_session_cookie does not respect expiry time allowing
sessions to be reused. [Hank Ibell]
mod_http2: fixes a DoS attack vector. By sending slow request bodies
to resources not consuming them, httpd cleanup code occupies a server
thread unnecessarily. This was changed to an immediate stream reset
which discards all stream state and incoming data. [Stefan Eissing]
mod_ssl: Fix infinite loop triggered by a client-initiated
renegotiation in TLSv1.2 (or earlier) with OpenSSL 1.1.1 and
later. PR 63052. [Joe Orton]
