This update for apache2 fixes the following issues :

  - CVE-2019-0220: The Apache HTTP server did not use a     consistent strategy for URL normalization throughout all     of its components. In particular, consecutive slashes     were not always collapsed. Attackers could potentially     abuse these inconsistencies to by-pass access control     mechanisms and thus gain unauthorized access to     protected parts of the service. [bsc#1131241]

  - CVE-2019-0217: A race condition in Apache's     'mod_auth_digest' when running in a threaded server     could have allowed users with valid credentials to     authenticate using another username, bypassing     configured access control restrictions. [bsc#1131239]

  - CVE-2019-0211: A flaw in the Apache HTTP Server allowed     less-privileged child processes or threads to execute     arbitrary code with the privileges of the parent     process. Attackers with control over CGI scripts or     extension modules run by the server could have abused     this issue to potentially gain super user privileges.

  - CVE-2019-0197: When HTTP/2 support was enabled in the     Apache server for a 'http' host or H2Upgrade was enabled     for h2 on a 'https' host, an Upgrade request from     http/1.1 to http/2 that was not the first request on a     connection could lead to a misconfiguration and crash.
    This issue could have been abused to mount a     denial-of-service attack. Servers that never enabled the     h2 protocol or that only enabled it for https: and did     not configure the 'H2Upgrade on' are unaffected.

  - CVE-2019-0196: Through specially crafted network input     the Apache's http/2 request handler could be lead to     access previously freed memory while determining the     method of a request. This resulted in the request being     misclassified and thus being processed incorrectly.
