                    Mandrake Linux Security Update Advisory
    ________________________________________________________________________

    Package name: apache
    Advisory ID: MDKSA-2002:068-1
    Date: December 18th, 2002
    Original Advisory Date: October 15th, 2002
    Affected versions: Single Network Firewall 7.2
    ________________________________________________________________________

    Problem Description:

     A number of vulnerabilities were discovered in Apache versions prior to
     1.3.27. The first is regarding the use of shared memory (SHM) in
     Apache. An attacker that is able to execute code as the UID of the
     webserver (typically "apache") is able to send arbitrary processes a
     USR1 signal as root. Using this vulnerability, the attacker can also
     cause the Apache process to continously span more children processes,
     thus causing a local DoS. Another vulnerability was discovered by
     Matthew Murphy regarding a cross site scripting vulnerability in the
     standard 404 error page. Finally, some buffer overflows were found in
     the "ab" benchmark program that is included with Apache.
     
     All of these vulnerabilities were fixed in Apache 1.3.27; the packages
     provided have these fixes applied.
      
    Update:

     Packages for SNF7.2 are now available.
