Check for the version of the apache2 package Detailed Explanation for this Vulnerability Assessment The remote host is missing the patch for the advisory MDKSA-2005:233 (apache2). A memory leak in the worker MPM in Apache 2 could permit remote attackers to cause a Denial of Service (memory consumption) via aborted commands in certain circumstances, which prevents the memory for the transaction pool from being reused for other connections. As well, this update addresses two bugs in the Mandriva 2006 Apache packges where apachectl was missing and also a segfault that occured when using the mod_ldap module.
