Changes with Apache 2.0.47
*) SECURITY [CAN-2003-0192]: Fixed a bug whereby certain sequences
of per-directory renegotiations and the SSLCipherSuite directive
being used to upgrade from a weak ciphersuite to a strong one
could result in the weak ciphersuite being used in place of the
strong one. [Ben Laurie]
*) SECURITY [CAN-2003-0253]: Fixed a bug in prefork MPM causing
temporary denial of service when accept() on a rarely accessed port
returns certain errors. Reported by Saheed Akhtar
<S.Akhtar@talis.com>. [Jeff Trawick]
*) SECURITY [CAN-2003-0254]: Fixed a bug in ftp proxy causing denial
of service when target host is IPv6 but proxy server can't create
IPv6 socket. Fixed by the reporter. [Yoshioka Tsuneo
<tsuneo.yoshioka@f-secure.com>]
*) SECURITY [VU#379828] Prevent the server from crashing when entering
infinite loops. The new LimitInternalRecursion directive configures
limits of subsequent internal redirects and nested subrequests, after
which the request will be aborted. PR 19753 (and probably others).
[William Rowe, Jeff Trawick, André Malo]
*) core_output_filter: don't split the brigade after a FLUSH bucket if
it's the last bucket. This prevents creating unneccessary empty
brigades which may not be destroyed until the end of a keepalive
connection.
[Juan Rivera <Juan.Rivera@citrix.com>]
*) Add support for "streamy" PROPFIND responses.
[Ben Collins-Sussman <sussman@collab.net>]
*) mod_cgid: Eliminate a double-close of a socket. This resolves
various operational problems in a threaded MPM, since on the
second attempt to close the socket, the same descriptor was
often already in use by another thread for another purpose.
[Jeff Trawick]
*) mod_negotiation: Introduce "prefer-language" environment variable,
which allows to influence the negotiation process on request basis
to prefer a certain language. [André Malo]
*) Make mod_expires' ExpiresByType work properly, including for
dynamically-generated documents. [Ken Coar, Bill Stoddard]
This package contains apr and apr-util from the latest Apache2
distribution (currently httpd-2.0.45). It is currently (er, currently
in a few minutes) shared between the Apache2 and Subversion packages.
