  Fix Bug 18388 (Set-Cookie in 304)

Reviewed By: fielding, wrowe, covener

1 -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
2 Changes with Apache 2.0.64
3
4 *) SECURITY: CVE-2008-2939 (cve.mitre.org)
5 mod_proxy_ftp: Prevent XSS attacks when using wildcards in the path of
6 the FTP URL. Discovered by Marc Bevand of Rapid7. [Ruediger Pluem]
7
8 *) Add Set-Cookie and Set-Cookie2 to the list of headers allowed to pass
9 through on a 304 response. [Nick Kew]
10
11 Changes with Apache 2.0.63
12
13 *) winnt_mpm: Resolve modperl issues by redirecting console mode stdout
14 to /Device/Nul as the server is starting up, mirroring unix MPM's.
15 PR: 43534 [Tom Donovan <Tom.Donovan acm.org>, William Rowe]
16
17 *) winnt_mpm: Restore Win32DisableAcceptEx On directive and Win9x platform
18 by recreating the bucket allocator each time the trans pool is cleared.
19 PR: 11427 #16 (follow-on) [Tom Donovan <Tom.Donovan acm.org>]
20
21 Changes with Apache 2.0.62 (not released)
22
23 *) SECURITY: CVE-2007-6388 (cve.mitre.org)
24 mod_status: Ensure refresh parameter is numeric to prevent
25 a possible XSS attack caused by redirecting to other URLs.
26 Reported by SecurityReason. [Mark Cox, Joe Orton]
27
28 *) SECURITY: CVE-2007-5000 (cve.mitre.org)
29 mod_imap: Fix a cross-site scripting issue. Reported by JPCERT.
30 [Joe Orton]
31
32 *) Introduce the ProxyFtpDirCharset directive, allowing the administrator
33 to identify a default, or specific servers or paths which list their
34 contents in other-than ISO-8859-1 charset (e.g. utf-8). [Ruediger Pluem]
35
36 *) log.c: Ensure Win32 resurrects its lost robust logger processes.
37 [William Rowe]
38
39 *) mpm_winnt: Eliminate wait_for_many_objects. Allows the clean
40 shutdown of the server when the MaxClients is higher then 257,
41 in a more responsive manner [Mladen Turk, William Rowe]
42
43 *) Add explicit charset to the output of various modules to work around
44 possible cross-site scripting flaws affecting web browsers that do not
45 derive the response character set as required by RFC2616. One of these
46 reported by SecurityReason [Joe Orton]
47
48 *) http_protocol: Escape request method in 405 error reporting.
49 This has no security impact since the browser cannot be tricked
50 into sending arbitrary method strings. [Jeff Trawick]
51
52 *) http_protocol: Escape request method in 413 error reporting.
53 Determined to be not generally exploitable, but a flaw in any case.
54 PR 44014 [Victor Stinner <victor.stinner inl.fr>]
55
56 Changes with Apache 2.0.61
57
58 *) SECURITY: CVE-2007-3847 (cve.mitre.org)
59 mod_proxy: Prevent reading past the end of a buffer when parsing
60 date-related headers. PR 41144.
61 [Davi Arnaut, Nick Kew]
62
63 *) SECURITY: CVE-2007-1863 (cve.mitre.org)
64 mod_cache: Prevent segmentation fault if a Cache-Control header has
65 no value. [Niklas Edmundsson <nikke acc.umu.se>]
66
67 *) SECURITY: CVE-2006-5752 (cve.mitre.org)
68 mod_status: Fix a possible XSS attack against a site with a public
69 server-status page and ExtendedStatus enabled, for browsers which
70 perform charset "detection". Reported by Stefan Esser. [Joe Orton]
71
72 *) SECURITY: CVE-2007-3304 (cve.mitre.org)
73 prefork, worker MPMs: Ensure that the parent process cannot
74 be forced to kill processes outside its process group.
75 [Joe Orton, Jim Jagielski]
76
77 *) mod_proxy_http: accept proxy-sendchunked/proxy-sendchunks as synonymous.
78 PR 43183 [Brian Rectanus <Brian.Rectanus breach.com>, Vincent Bray]
79
80 *) log core: ensure we use a special pool for stderr logging, so that
81 the stderr channel remains valid from the time plog is destroyed,
82 until the time the open_logs hook is called again. [William Rowe]
83
84 *) mod_ssl: Version reporting update; displays 'compiled against'
85 Apache and build-time SSL Library versions at loglevel [info],
86 while reporting the run-time SSL Library version in the server
87 info tags. Helps to identify a mod_ssl built against one flavor
88 of OpenSSL but running against another (also adds SSL-C version
89 number reporting.) [William Rowe]
90
91 *) mod_autoindex: Add in Type and Charset options to IndexOptions
92 directive. This allows the admin to explicitly set the
93 content-type and charset of the generated page and is therefore
94 a viable workaround for buggy browsers affected by CVE-2007-4465
95 (cve.mitre.org). [Jim Jagielski]
96
97 *) main core: Emit errors during the initial apr_app_initialize()
98 or apr_pool_create() (when apr-based error reporting is not ready).
99 [William Rowe, Jeff Trawick]
100
101 *) log core: Fix issue which could cause piped loggers to be orphaned
102 and never terminate after a graceful restart. PR 40651. [Joe Orton,
103 Ruediger Pluem]
104
105 *) log core: fix the new piped logger case where we couldn't connect
106 the replacement stderr logger's stderr to the NULL stdout stream.
107 Continue in this case, since the previous alternative of no error
108 logging at all (/dev/null) is far worse. [William Rowe]
109
110 *) mpm_winnt: Prevent the parent-child pipe from leaking into other
111 spawned processes, and ensure we have a /Device/null handle for
112 stdout when running as-a-service. [William Rowe]
113
114 *) ApacheMonitor: Fix Windows Vista detection. [Mladen Turk]
115
116 *) mod_so: Solve dev's confusion by reporting expected/seen module
117 magic signatures when failing with a 'garbled' message, and solve
118 user's confusion by pointing out 'perhaps compiled for a different
119 version of apache?'. [William Rowe]
120
121 *) mod_ssl: initialize thread locks before initializing the hardware
122 acceleration library, so the latter can make use of the former.
123 PR 20951. [<adunn ncipher.com>]
124
125 *) mod_ssl: Support limited buffering of request bodies to allow
126 per-location renegotiation to proceed. PR 12355. [Joe Orton]

129 from input filter chain. PR 31759 (mutated). [Jo Rhett,

132 *) htdbm: Fix crash processing -d option in 64-bit mode on HP-UX.
133 [Jeff Trawick]
134
135 *) proxy_http.c: Overlay existing cookies with proxied ones, ala
136 httpd-2.2. [Jim Jagielski]
137
138 *) mod_proxy: ProxyTimeout (and others) ignored due to not merging
139 the *_set params. PR 11540. [Jim Jagielski]

142 PR 40573. [Matt Eaton <asf divinehawk.com>]
143
144 *) mod_isapi: Avoid double trailing slashes in HSE_REQ_MAP_URL_TO_PATH
145 support. Also corrects the slashes for Windows. PR 15993. [William Rowe]
146
147 *) mod_isapi: Handle "HTTP/1.1 200 OK" style status lines correctly, the
148 token parser worked while the resulting length was misinterpreted.
149 PR 29098. [Brock Bland <bbland serena.com>]
150
151 *) mod_isapi: Return 0 (failure) for more of the various ap_pass_brigade
152 attempts to stream the response at the client. Log these as well.

189 run on Unix. [William Wrowe]
190
191 *) HTML-escape the Expect error message. Not classed as security as
192 an attacker has no way to influence the Expect header a victim will
193 send to a target site. Reported by Thiago Zaninotti

200 non-SSL request is processed for an SSL vhost (such as the
201 "HTTP request received on SSL port" error message when an 400
202 ErrorDocument is configured, or if using "SSLEngine optional").

204
205 *) SECURITY: CVE-2005-3352 (cve.mitre.org)
206 mod_imap: Escape untrusted referer header before outputting in HTML
207 to avoid potential cross-site scripting. Change also made to
208 ap_escape_html so we escape quotes. Reported by JPCERT.
209 [Mark Cox]
210
211 *) Add APR/APR-Util Compiled and Runtime Version numbers to the
212 output of 'httpd -V'. [William Rowe]
213
214 *) Ensure that the proper status line is written to the client, fixing
215 incorrect status lines caused by filters which modify r->status without
216 resetting r->status_line, such as the built-in byterange filter.
217 [Jeff Trawick]

328 proxy: Correctly handle the Transfer-Encoding and Content-Length
329 headers. Discard the request Content-Length whenever T-E: chunked
330 is used, always passing one of either C-L or T-E: chunked whenever
331 the request includes a request body. Resolves an entire class of
332 proxy HTTP Request Splitting/Spoofing attacks. [William Rowe]
333
334 *) Added TraceEnable [on|off|extended] per-server directive to alter
335 the behavior of the TRACE method. This addresses a flaw in proxy
336 conformance to RFC 2616 - previously the proxy server would accept
337 a TRACE request body although the RFC prohibited it. The default
338 remains 'TraceEnable on'. [William Rowe]

466 populated with a standard Makefile.in. [Erik Abele]
467
468 *) Fix the RPM spec file so that an RPM build now works. An RPM

470 Remove some arbitrary moving around of binaries - the RPM now
471 maps to the ASF build of httpd.

1547
1548 *) Added AllowEncodedSlashes directive to permit control of whether
1549 the server will accept encoded slashes ('%2f') in the URI path.
1550 Default condition is off (the historical behaviour). This permits
1551 environments in which the path-info needs to contain encoded

2249 *) mod_disk_cache works much better. This module should still
2250 be considered experimental. [Eric Prud'hommeaux]

2254 response on the connection, set aside the file descriptor rather
2255 than copying the file into the heap. [Brian Pane]
2256
2257 *) Modified version check on openssl so that it finds the executable
2258 first and then performs a check of the version, only warning the
2259 user if they chose, or we selected, an old version of OpenSSL.
2260 This change also allows the code to work for non-openssl libraries
2261 selected via the --with-ssl=dir option, which can override the
2262 automated library check in any case. [Roy Fielding]

2269 affected, Cygwin may be affected. Certain URIs will bypass security
2270 and allow users to invoke or access any file depending on the system
2271 configuration. Without upgrading, a single .conf change will close
2272 the vulnerability. Add the following directive in the global server

2320 PR 11030. [Jeff Trawick, David Shane Holden <dpejesh yahoo.com>]
2321
2322 *) When deciding on the default address family for listening sockets,
2323 make sure we can actually bind to an AF_INET6 socket before
2324 deciding that we should default to AF_INET6. This fixes a startup
2325 problem on certain levels of OpenUNIX. PR 10235. [Jeff Trawick]
2326

2328 larger-than-long value with apr_atoll(), which returns long long.
2329 This allows HTTPD to deal with larger files correctly.
2330 [Shantonu Sen <ssen apple.com>]
2331
2332 *) mod_ext_filter: Ignore any content-type parameters when checking if
2333 the response should be filtered. Previously, "intype=text/html"

2371 headers (ap_rgetline_core() and related functions) [Brian Pane]
2372
2373 *) Add a new directive: MaxMemFree. MaxMemFree makes it possible
2374 to configure the maximum amount of memory the allocators will
2375 hold on to for reuse. Anything over the MaxMemFree threshold
2376 will be free()d. This directive is useful when uncommon large
2377 peaks occur in memory usage. It should _not_ be used to mask
2378 defective modules' memory use. [Sander Striker]

2380 *) Fixed the Content-Length filter so that HTTP/1.0 requests to CGI
2381 scripts would not result in a truncated response.

2383
2384 *) Add a filter_init parameter to the filter registration functions

2452 tmpnam being unsafe. [Ryan Bloom]
2453
2454 *) We must set the MIME-type for .shtml files to text/html if we want them
2455 to be parsed for SSI tags. Add the config for that to the default

2461
2462 *) Make the default_handler catch all requests that aren't served by
2463 another handler. This also gets us to return a 404 if a directory
2464 is requested, there is no DirectoryIndex, and mod_autoindex isn't
2465 loaded. [Justin Erenkrantz]

2467 *) Fixed the handling of nested if-statements in shtml files.
2468 PR 9866 [Brian Pane]
2469
2470 *) Allow 'make install DESTDIR=/path'. This allows packagers to install
2471 into a directory different from the one that was configured. This
2472 also mirrors the root= feature from 1.3. We cannot use prefix=,
2473 because both APR and APR-util resolve their installation paths at
2474 configuration time. This means that there is no variable prefix
2475 to replace. [Andreas Hasenack <andreas netbank.com.br>]
2476

2478 These levels of AIX don't have a thundering herd problem with
2479 accept(). [Jeff Trawick]

2482 certain types of mutexes (particularly SysV semaphores), we
2483 should expect to occasionally fail to obtain or release the
2484 mutex during restart processing. [Jeff Trawick]
2485
2486 *) Fix install-bindist.sh so that it finds any perl instead of just
2487 early perl 5.x versions. This is consistent with a build/install
2488 from source, and it allows the perl scripts installed by a bindist
2489 to work on systems with perl 5.6. [Jeff Trawick]
2490
2491 *) Fix apxs so that the makefile created by "apxs -g" works on AIX and
2492 Tru64 (and probably some other platforms). [Jeff Trawick]
