* SECURITY: [CAN-2002-0661] Close a very significant security hole that
applies only to the Win32, OS2 and Netware platforms. Unix was not
affected, Cygwin may be affected. Certain URIs will bypass security
and allow users to invoke or access any file depending on the system
configuration. Without upgrading, a single .conf change will close
the vulnerability. Add the following directive in the global server
httpd.conf context before any other Alias or Redirect directives;
RedirectMatch 400 "\\\.\."
Reported by Auriemma Luigi <bugtest@sitoverde.com>.
[Brad Nicholes]
* SECURITY: Close a path-revealing exposure in multiview type
map negotiation (such as the default error documents) where the
module would report the full path of the typemapped .var file when
multiple documents or no documents could be served based on the mime
negotiation. Reported by Auriemma Luigi <bugtest@sitoverde.com>.
[CAN-2002-0654] [William Rowe]
* SECURITY: Close a path-revealing exposure in cgi/cgid when we
fail to invoke a script. The modules would report "couldn't create
child process /path-to-script/script.pl" revealing the full path
of the script. Reported by Jim Race <jrace@qualys.com>.
[CAN-2002-0654] [Bill Stoddard]
* More bug fixes (see the CHANGES file)
Give Apache a user and group by default, not only with suexec.
The variables for this have changed from APACHE_SUEXEC_USER and
APACHE_SUEXEC_GROUP to APACHE_USER and APACHE_GROUP.
Mention 'Apache' in COMMENT.
Use variables for the version number instead of copying it around.
Bump PKGREVISION.
For apache{,6}:
Change paths to /var/httpd instead of /var/spool/httpd.
Honour STRIPFLAG.
Add --without-confadjust as configure argument.
Enable the 'define' module.
For apache:
Enable proxy module on NOPIC platforms.
Some of these changes are based on pkg/17469 by Greg A. Woods, some on
comments by Johnny Lam.

Changes with Apache 2.0.39
*) Fixed a build problem in htpasswd.c on Win32.
[Guenter Knauf <eflash@gmx.net>, Cliff Woolley]
Changes with Apache 2.0.38
*) Rewrite htpasswd to use APR. The removes the annoying warning about
tmpnam being unsafe. [Ryan Bloom]
*) We must set the MIME-type for .shtml files to text/html if we want them
to be parsed for SSI tags. Add the config for that to the default
config file so that it is easier to enable .shtml parsing.
[Dave Dyer <ddyer@real-me.net>]
*) Fixed a problem with 'make install' on ReliantUnix.
[Jean-frederic Clere <jfrederic.clere@fujitsu-siemens.com>]
*) Make the default_handler catch all requests that aren't served by
another handler. This also gets us to return a 404 if a directory
is requested, there is no DirectoryIndex, and mod_autoindex isn't
loaded. [Justin Erenkrantz]
*) Fixed the handling of nested if-statements in shtml files.
PR 9866 [Brian Pane]
*) Allow 'make install DESTDIR=/path'. This allows packagers to install
into a directory different from the one that was configured. This
also mirrors the root= feature from 1.3. We cannot use prefix=,
because both APR and APR-util resolve their installation paths at
configuration time. This means that there is no variable prefix
to replace. [Andreas Hasenack <andreas@netbank.com.br>]
*) AIX 4.3.2 and above: Define SINGLE_LISTEN_UNSERIALIZED_ACCEPT.
These levels of AIX don't have a thundering herd problem with
accept(). [Jeff Trawick]
*) prefork MPM: Ignore mutex errors during graceful restart. For
certain types of mutexes (particularly SysV semaphores), we
should expect to occasionally fail to obtain or release the
mutex during restart processing. [Jeff Trawick]
*) Fix install-bindist.sh so that it finds any perl instead of just
early perl 5.x versions. This is consistent with a build/install
from source, and it allows the perl scripts installed by a bindist
to work on systems with perl 5.6. [Jeff Trawick]
*) Fix apxs so that the makefile created by "apxs -g" works on AIX and
Tru64 (and probably some other platforms). [Jeff Trawick]
*) Allow CGI scripts to return their Content-Length. This also fixes a
hang on HEAD requests seen on certain platforms (such as FreeBSD).
[Justin Erenkrantz]
*) Added log rotation based on file size to the RotateLog support
utility. [Brad Nicholes]
*) Fix some casting in mod_rewrite which broke random maps.

*) [Security] Added the APLOG_TOCLIENT flag to ap_log_rerror() to
explicitly tell the server that warning messages should be sent
to the client in addition to being recorded in the error log.
Prior to this change, ap_log_rerror() always sent warning
messages to the client. In one case, a faulty CGI script caused
the server to send a warning message to the client that contained
the full path to the CGI script. This could be considered a
minor security exposure. [Bill Stoddard]
*) mod_autoindex output when SuppressRules was specified would
omit the first carriage return so the first item in the list
would appear to the right of the column headings instead of
underneath them. PR 8016 [David Shane Holden <dpejesh@yahoo.com>]
*) Moved the call to apr_mmap_dup outside the error branch so
that it would actually get called. This fixes a core dump

[Paul J. Reder]
*) Trigger an error when a LoadModule directive attempts to
load a module which is built-in. This is a common error when
switching from a DSO build to a static build. [Jeff Trawick]
*) Change instdso.sh to use libtool --install everywhere and then
clean up some stray files and symlinks that libtool leaves around
on some platforms. This gets subversion building properly since
it needed a re-link to be performed by libtool at install time,
and the old instdso.sh logic to simply cp the DSO didn't handle
that requirement. [Sander Striker]
*) Allow VPATH builds to succeed when configured from an empty
directory. [Thom May <thom@planetarytramp.net>]
*) Fix 'control reaches end of non-void function' warning in
server/log.c. [Ben Collins-Sussman <sussman@collab.net>]
*) Perchild MPM is now correctly deemed as experimental and is now
located in server/mpm/experimental. [Justin Erenkrantz]
*) Fix segfault in mod_mem_cache when garabge collecting an expired
cache entry. [Bill Stoddard]
*) Introduced -E startup_logfile_name option to httpd to allow admins

into the httpd binary. This may be adjusted by setting APACHE_MODULES in
/etc/mk.conf and defaults to ${DFLT_APACHE_MODULES}, which contains:
all proxy proxy_connect proxy_ftp proxy_http ssl
A complete list of which modules may be built into the Apache httpd server
may be found in the Apache documentation either in the distributed tarball
or on the Apache website (http://httpd.apache.org). An example for adding
mod_deflate is:
APACHE_MODULES= ${DFLT_APACHE_MODULES} deflate
The implementation of this feature uses two tables, _AP_DEPENDS and
_AP_CFG_ARGS, indexed by the module name and that specify respectively
any additional dependencies or configure script options needed for building
the module.
Update www/apache2 to 2.0.35, the first stable release of Apache 2.x.
Pkgsrc changes include:
*) Compiling the included modules statically. Add-ons will be built
dynamically.
*) Match improvements to www/apache rc.d script.
*) Automatically add "Listen 0.0.0.0:80" to the sample config files as the
default install of NetBSD is IPv4/IPv6 and we want the default install of
Apache to work out-of-the-box.
*) Automatically reset the User and Group directives to match the ones for
suEXEC in the config files to ease the use of suEXEC in Apache.
Changes from version 2.0.32 beta include:
*) Small bug fixes across the board.
*) Bug fixes to the various MPMs.
*) Performance improvements.
*) Fixes for mod_include errors on boundary conditions
*) Bug fixes for mod_proxy to prevent hangs and for RFC2616 compliance.
*) Improvements to mod_dav for improved API and for RFC 3253 compliance
*) Improvemants to mod_ssl to support SSL proxy and RSA SSLC 1.x/2.x
*) Greatly improve mod_cache (disk/mem) [this is disabled in pkgsrc]
*) New scoreboard file implementation that is readable by 3rd-party apps.
*) Allow all Perchild directives to accept either numerical UID/GID
or logical user/group names.
*) Add support for macro expansion within the variable names in
<!--#echo--> and <!--#set--> directives
*) Implement SSLSessionCache shmht and shmcb.
*) New directive ProxyIOBufferSize. Sets the size of the buffer used
when reading from a remote HTTP server in proxy.
*) Scrap CacheMaxExpireMin and CacheDefaultExpireMin. Change
CacheMaxExpire and CacheDefaultExpire to use seconds rather than
hours.
*) New Directive SSIUndefinedEcho. to change the '(none)' echoed
for a undefined variable.
*) Introduce PassPhraseDialog "|/path/to/pipe" mechanism to mod_ssl.
*) New Directive for mod_proxy: ProxyRemoteMatch.
*) Fix IPv6 name-based virtual hosts.
*) Introduce AddOutputFilterByType directive.
include:
*) Move the binaries back into ${PREFIX}/sbin to match the locations
for www/apache.
*) Build the Apache modules (including mod_ssl) so that apache2 has
the same functionality as apache.
*) Support shared modules on platforms that support them. Otherwise,
link the modules statically into the server.
*) Support suEXEC in the same way as for www/apache.
*) Honor PKG_SYSCONFDIR.
*) Add a rc.d-style control script based on www/apache/files/apache.sh.
*) Strongly buildlinkify again after previous changes broke it.
Relevant changes from version 2.0.28 beta include:
*) A ton of bug fixes in both the main server code and the module code
(it _is_ a beta release following a previous beta release).
*) Several performance and memory optimizations.
*) The Location: response header field, used for external
redirect, *must* be an absoluteURI. The Redirect directive
tested for that, but RedirectMatch didn't -- it would allow
almost anything through. Now it will try to turn an abs_path
into an absoluteURI, but it will correctly varf like Redirect
if the final redirection target isn't an absoluteURI.
*) Add several new mod_proxy directives:
ProxyTimeout, ProxyPreserveHost, ProxyPass.
*) FTP directory listings are now always retrieved in ASCII mode.
The FTP proxy properly escapes URI's and HTML in the generated
listing, and escapes the path components when talking to the FTP
server.
*) Add FileETag directive to allow configurable control of what
data are used to form ETag values for file-based URIs.
*) Introduced the ForceLanguagePriority directive, to prevent
returning MULTIPLE_CHOICES or NONE_ACCEPTABLE in some cases,
when using Multiviews.
