Class: PATCH | Family: unix |
A number of vulnerabilities were found and fixed in the Apache 2.2.x packages: A flaw found in the mod_imagemap module could lead to a cross-site scripting attack on sites where mod_imagemap was enabled and an imagemap file was publically available . A flaw found in the mod_status module could lead to a cross-site scripting attack on sites where mod_status was enabled and the status pages were publically available . A flaw found in the mod_proxy_balancer module could lead to a cross-site scripting attack against an authorized user on sites where mod_proxy_balancer was enabled . Another flaw in the mod_proxy_balancer module was found where, on sites with the module enabled, an authorized user could send a carefully crafted request that would cause the apache child process handling the request to crash, which could lead to a denial of service if using a threaded MPM . A flaw found in the mod_proxy_ftp module could lead to a cross-site scripting attack against web browsers which do not correctly derive the response character set following the rules in RFC 2616, on sites where the mod_proxy_ftp module was enabled . The updated packages have been patched to correct these issues.
