EulerOS 2.0 SP3 : httpd (EulerOS-SA-2019-2593)

medium Nessus Plugin ID 132128

Synopsis

The remote EulerOS host is missing multiple security updates.

Description

According to the versions of the httpd packages installed, the EulerOS installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerabilities :

 - A specially crafted request could have crashed the Apache HTTP Server prior to version 2.4.30, due to an out of bound access after a size limit is reached by reading the HTTP header. This vulnerability is considered very hard if not impossible to trigger in non-debug mode (both log and build level), so it is classified as low risk for common server usage.(CVE-2018-1301)

 - In Apache httpd 2.4.0 to 2.4.29, when mod_session is configured to forward its session data to CGI applications (SessionEnv on, not the default), a remote user may influence their content by using a 'Session' header. This comes from the 'HTTP_SESSION' variable name used by mod_session to forward its data to CGIs, since the prefix 'HTTP_' is also used by the Apache HTTP Server to pass HTTP header fields, per CGI specifications.(CVE-2018-1283)

Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the EulerOS security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

Solution

Update the affected httpd packages.
