USN173-2 : pcre3, apache2 vulnerabilities

Vulnerability Assessment Summary pcre3, apache2 vulnerabilities Detailed Explanation for this Vulnerability Assessment Summary : These remote packages are missing security patches : - apache2 - apache2-common - apache2-doc - apache2-mpm-perchild - apache2-mpm-prefork - apache2-mpm-threadpool - apache2-mpm-worker - apache2-prefork-dev - apache2-threaded-dev - libapr0 - libapr0-dev - libpcre3 - libpcre3-dev - pcregrep - pgrep Description : USN-173-1 fixed a buffer overflow vulnerability in the PCRE library. However, it was acertaind that this did not suffice to prevent all possible overflows, so another update is necessary. In addition, it was found that the Ubuntu 4.10 version of Apache 2 contains a static copy of the library code, so this package needs to be updated as well. In Ubuntu 5.04, Apache 2 uses the external library from the libpcre3 package. Solution : Upgrade to : - apache2-2.0.50-12ubuntu4.4 (Ubuntu 4.10) - apache2-common-2.0.50-12ubuntu4.4 (Ubuntu 4.10) - apache2-doc-2.0.50-12ubuntu4.4 (Ubuntu 4.10) - apache2-mpm-perchild-2.0.50-12ubuntu4.4 (Ubuntu 4.10) - apache2-mpm-prefork-2.0.50-12ubuntu4.4 (Ubuntu 4.10) - apache2-mpm-threadpool-2.0.50-12ubuntu4.4 (Ubuntu 4.10) - apache2-mpm-worker-2.0.50-12ubuntu4.4 (Ubuntu 4.10) - apache2-prefork-dev-2.0.50-12ubuntu4.4 (Ubuntu 4.10) - apache2-threaded-dev-2.0.50-12ubuntu4.4 (Ubuntu 4.10) - libapr0-2.0.50-12ubun [...] Network Security Threat Level: High Networks Security ID: Vulnerability Assessment Copyright: Ubuntu Security Notice (C) 2005 Canonical, Inc. / NASL script (C) 2005 Michel Arboi
