my thoughts about this issue are similar too. This looks to me to be a security issue caused primarily due to mod_perl. Is there a listing somewhere of potential security threats/vulnerabilities associate with mod_perl and say other apache modules too? thanks ----- Original Message ----- From: users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To: users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx At: 6/23 14:27:15 Hi. http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/event.html states (at the end) : At present, this MPM is incompatible with mod_ssl, and other input filters. Would someone care to elaborate, in the sense of : Does that mean "any input filters at all", or just "some input filters" ? In particular : mod_perl intertwines itself quite deeply into the core Apache2 code. I am a mod_perl user, and occasional writer/user of mod_perl input filters. There are two types of such filters : - filters which act at the Connection level (see http://perl.apache.org/docs/2.0/api/Apache2/Filter.html#C_FilterConnectionHandler_ ) - filters which act at the Request level (see http://perl.apache.org/docs/2.0/api/Apache2/Filter.html#C_FilterRequestHandler_ )Does the above statement concern both, or just the Connection-level filters ? Is this question better asked on the mod_perl lists ?
