-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 _______________________________________________________________________ Mandriva Linux Security Advisory MDVSA-2009:184 http://www.mandriva.com/security/ _______________________________________________________________________ Package : apache-mod_security Date : July 31, 2009 Affected: Enterprise Server 5.0 _______________________________________________________________________ Problem Description: Multiple vulnerabilities has been found and corrected in mod_security: The multipart processor in ModSecurity before 2.5.9 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a multipart form datapost request with a missing part header name, which triggers a NULL pointer dereference (CVE-2009-1902). The PDF XSS protection feature in ModSecurity before 2.5.8 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (Apache httpd crash) via a request for a PDF file that does not use the GET method (CVE-2009-1903). This update provides mod_security 2.5.9, which is not vulnerable to these issues. _______________________________________________________________________ References: http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2009-1902 http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2009-1903 _______________________________________________________________________ Updated Packages: Mandriva Enterprise Server 5: 3ee426768772f50c01a52698259225ab mes5/i586/apache-mod_security-2.5.9-0.1mdvmes5.i586.rpm f6f45fd22e8011ff5f1eb477ebdae070 mes5/i586/mlogc-2.5.9-0.1mdvmes5.i586.rpm ce34b40bf2105728f8991ab997e1e8be mes5/SRPMS/apache-mod_security-2.5.9-0.1mdvmes5.src.rpm Mandriva Enterprise Server 5/X86_64: 942b15cdf81d21097efa3a5d77bc68e0 mes5/x86_64/apache-mod_security-2.5.9-0.1mdvmes5.x86_64.rpm 7541b1c3e055d5dac628ca0999811a25 mes5/x86_64/mlogc-2.5.9-0.1mdvmes5.x86_64.rpm ce34b40bf2105728f8991ab997e1e8be mes5/SRPMS/apache-mod_security-2.5.9-0.1mdvmes5.src.rpm _______________________________________________________________________ To upgrade automatically use MandrivaUpdate or urpmi.
