Changes with Apache 1.3.41
*) SECURITY: CVE-2007-6388 (cve.mitre.org)
mod_status: Ensure refresh parameter is numeric to prevent
a possible XSS attack caused by redirecting to other URLs.
Reported by SecurityReason. [Mark Cox]
Changes with Apache 1.3.40 (not released)
*) SECURITY: CVE-2007-5000 (cve.mitre.org)
mod_imap: Fix cross-site scripting issue. Reported by JPCERT.
[Joe Orton]
*) SECURITY: CVE-2007-3847 (cve.mitre.org)
mod_proxy: Prevent reading past the end of a buffer when parsing
date-related headers. PR 41144.
With Apache 1.3, the denial of service vulnerability applies only
to the Windows and NetWare platforms.
[Jeff Trawick]
*) More efficient implementation of the CVE-2007-3304 PID table
patch. This fixes issues with excessive memory usage by the
parent process if long-running and with a high number of child
process forks during that timeframe. Also fixes bogus "Bad pid"
errors. [Jim Jagielski, Jeff Trawick]
Changes with Apache 1.3.39
*) SECURITY: CVE-2006-5752 (cve.mitre.org)
mod_status: Fix a possible XSS attack against a site with a public
server-status page and ExtendedStatus enabled, for browsers which
perform charset "detection". Reported by Stefan Esser. [Joe Orton]
*) SECURITY: CVE-2007-3304 (cve.mitre.org)
Ensure that the parent process cannot be forced to kill non-child
processes by checking scoreboard PID data with parent process
privately stored PID data. [Jim Jagielski]
*) mime.types: Many updates to sync with IANA registry and common
unregistered types that the owners refuse to register. Admins
are encouraged to update their installed mime.types file.

There was no Apache 1.3.38
the owner of all installed files is a non-root user. This change
affects most packages that require special users or groups by making
them use the specified unprivileged user and group instead.
(1) Add two new variables PKG_GROUPS_VARS and PKG_USERS_VARS to
unprivileged.mk. These two variables are lists of other bmake
variables that define package-specific users and groups. Packages
that have user-settable variables for users and groups, e.g. apache
and APACHE_{USER,GROUP}, courier-mta and COURIER_{USER,GROUP},
etc., should list these variables in PKG_USERS_VARS and PKG_GROUPS_VARS
so that unprivileged.mk can know to set them to ${UNPRIVILEGED_USER}
and ${UNPRIVILEGED_GROUP}.
(2) Modify packages to use PKG_GROUPS_VARS and PKG_USERS_VARS.
Changes with Apache 1.3.37
*) SECURITY: CVE-2006-3747 (cve.mitre.org)
mod_rewrite: Fix an off-by-one security problem in the ldap scheme
handling. For some RewriteRules this could lead to a pointer being
written out of bounds. Reported by Mark Dowd of McAfee.
[Mark Cox]
Changes with Apache 1.3.36
*) Reverted SVN rev #396294 due to unwanted regression.
The new feature introduced in 1.3.35 (Allow usage of the
"Include" configuration directive within previously "Include"d
files) has been removed in the meantime.
(http://svn.apache.org/viewcvs?rev=396294&view=rev)
Changes with Apache 1.3.35
*) SECURITY: CVE-2005-3352 (cve.mitre.org)
mod_imap: Escape untrusted referer header before outputting in HTML
to avoid potential cross-site scripting. Change also made to
ap_escape_html so we escape quotes. Reported by JPCERT.
[Mark Cox]
*) core: Allow usage of the "Include" configuration directive within
previously "Include"d files. [Colm MacCarthaigh]
*) HTML-escape the Expect error message. Not classed as security as
an attacker has no way to influence the Expect header a victim will
send to a target site. Reported by Thiago Zaninotti [Mark Cox]
*) mod_cgi: Remove block on OPTIONS method so that scripts can
respond to OPTIONS directly rather than via server default.
[Roy Fielding] PR 15242
and add a new helper target and script, "show-buildlink3", that outputs
a listing of the buildlink3.mk files included as well as the depth at
which they are included.
For example, "make show-buildlink3" in fonts/Xft2 displays:
zlib
fontconfig
iconv
zlib
freetype2
expat
freetype2
Xrender
renderproto
RECOMMENDED is removed. It becomes ABI_DEPENDS.
BUILDLINK_RECOMMENDED.foo becomes BUILDLINK_ABI_DEPENDS.foo.
BUILDLINK_DEPENDS.foo becomes BUILDLINK_API_DEPENDS.foo.
BUILDLINK_DEPENDS does not change.
IGNORE_RECOMMENDED (which defaulted to "no") becomes USE_ABI_DEPENDS
which defaults to "yes".
Added to obsolete.mk checking for IGNORE_RECOMMENDED.
I did not manually go through and fix any aesthetic tab/spacing issues.
I have tested the above patch on DragonFly building and packaging
subversion and pkglint and their many dependencies.
I have also tested USE_ABI_DEPENDS=no on my NetBSD workstation (where I
have used IGNORE_RECOMMENDED for a long time). I have been an active user
of IGNORE_RECOMMENDED since it was available.
As suggested, I removed the documentation sentences suggesting bumping for
"security" issues.
As discussed on tech-pkg.
I will commit to revbump, pkglint, pkg_install, createbuildlink separately.
Note that if you use wip, it will fail! I will commit to pkgsrc-wip
later (within day).
developer is officially maintaining the package.
The rationale for changing this from "tech-pkg" to "pkgsrc-users" is
that it implies that any user can try to maintain the package (by
submitting patches to the mailing list). Since the folks most likely
to care about the package are the folks that want to use it or are
already using it, this would leverage the energy of users who aren't
developers.
Zafer Aydogan. Changes from 1.3.33:
*) hsregex: fix potential core dumping on 64 bit machines, such as
AMD64. PR 31858. [Glenn Strauss < gs-apache-dev gluelogic.com>]
*) SECURITY: core: If a request contains both Transfer-Encoding and
Content-Length headers, remove the Content-Length, mitigating some
HTTP Request Splitting/Spoofing attacks. This has no impact on
mod_proxy_http, yet affects any module which supports chunked
encoding yet fails to prefer T-E: chunked over the Content-Length
purported value. [Paul Querna, Joe Orton]
*) Added TraceEnable [on|off|extended] per-server directive to alter
the behavior of the TRACE method. This addresses a flaw in proxy
conformance to RFC 2616 - previously the proxy server would accept
a TRACE request body although the RFC prohibited it. The default
remains 'TraceEnable on'.
[William Rowe]
*) mod_digest: Fix another nonce string calculation issue.
[Eric Covener]
- Fix a security issue (CAN-2005-2700) where "SSLVerifyClient require"
was not enforced in per-location context if "SSLVerifyClient optional"
was configured in the global virtual host configuration.
Sync apache with the latest ap-ssl.
backslashes anymore. A single backslash is enough. Changed the
definition in all affected packages. For those that are not caught, an
additional check is placed into bsd.pkginstall.mk.
that these directories will be conditionally removed (based on reference
counts), regardless of the value of PKG_CONFIG. Bump the PKGREVISION
for packages that were modified as a result.
as the INSTALL and DEINSTALL scripts no longer distinguish between
the two types of files. Drop SUPPORT_FILES{,_PERMS} and modify the
packages in pkgsrc accordingly.
around at either build-time or at run-time is:
USE_TOOLS+= perl # build-time
USE_TOOLS+= perl:run # run-time
Also remove some places where perl5/buildlink3.mk was being included
by a package Makefile, but all that the package wanted was the Perl
executable.
Remove an instance of ${TYPE} from pkgsrc. The use of the private
variable _INSTALL_CMD is only temporary until we switch over to the
new tools framework.
The committed version has an additional | (pipe) character in it,
breaking the sed and causing an empty apxs file.
Replacing the pipes with commas does not help either, because then
the backquoted command gets embedded into apxs instead of the
correct pathname.
Bump PKGREVISION because this broke at least ap-php and ap-ssl.
And always is defined as share/examples/rc.d
which was the default before.
This rc.d scripts are not automatically added to PLISTs now also.
So add to each corresponding PLIST as required.
This was discussed on tech-pkg in late January and late April.
Todo: remove the RCD_SCRIPTS_EXAMPLEDIR uses in MESSAGES and elsewhere
and remove the RCD_SCRIPTS_EXAMPLEDIR itself.
gets restarted when "/etc/rc.d/apache restart" is used. This fixes
PR pkg/24179 for the "apache" package.
Based on a similar change for the apache2 package.
Bump PKGREVISION.
