Package: apache2 Severity: grave Justification: user security hole Seems to me that Debian (sarge or etch or even sid) apache packages are not yet patched against http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2007-4465 http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2007-4465 Seems to me that the obvious workarounds of turning Indexes off or having an index.html everywhere, protects just fine; and wonder why Apache does not say so.

* Fix various cross site scripting vulnerabilities with browsers that do not
conform to RFC 2616: Apache now adds explicit ContentType and Charset headers to the output of various modules, even if AddDefaultCharset is commented out. This includes directory indexes generated by mod_autoindex and mod_proxy_ftp, which are now marked as iso-8859-1 by default. (CVE-2007-4465, CVE-2008-0005, closes: #453783) To allow to specify the character set for the directory indexes, the Charset and Type IndexOptions and the ProxyFtpDirCharset directive have been backported from 2.2.8. If you use mod_autoindex and use UTF-8 for your filenames, you should add Charset=UTF-8 to the IndexOptions line in /etc/apache2/apache2.conf . If you use mod_proxy_ftp, the default charset can be set with the ProxyFtpDirCharset directive in /etc/apache2/mods-available/proxy.conf . ProxyFtpDirCharset can also be used inside <Proxy ...> </Proxy> blocks to set the charset for specific servers.
* Reduce memory usage of chunk filter and ap_rwrite/ap_rflush
(Closes: #399776, #421557)
* More minor security fixes:
- XSS in mod_imagemap (CVE-2007-5000) - XSS in mod_proxy_balancer's balancer manager (CVE-2007-6421) - XSS in HTTP method in 413 error message (CVE-2007-6203) - possible crash in mod_proxy_balancer's balancer manager (CVE-2007-6422)
* Fix mod_proxy_balancer configuration file parsing (closes: #453630).
* Don't ship NEWS.Debian with apache2-utils as it affects only the server.
Remove bogus reference to 2.2.3-5 from README.Debian, and add note about MSIE SSL workaround.
