    - ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Debian Security Advisory DSA-1934-1 [email protected] http://www.debian.org/security/ Stefan Fritsch November 16, 2009 http://www.debian.org/security/faq
    - ------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Package : apache2
    Vulnerability : multiple issues
    Problem type : remote
    Debian-specific: no
    CVE Id(s) : CVE-2009-3094 CVE-2009-3095 CVE-2009-3555


    A design flaw has been found in the TLS and SSL protocol that allows
    an attacker to inject arbitrary content at the beginning of a TLS/SSL connection. The attack is related to the way how TLS and SSL handle
    session renegotiations. CVE-2009-3555 has been assigned to this
    vulnerability.

    As a partial mitigation against this attack, this apache2 update
    disables client-initiated renegotiations. This should fix the
    vulnerability for the majority of Apache configurations in use.

    NOTE: This is not a complete fix for the problem. The attack is
    still possible in configurations where the server initiates the
    renegotiation. This is the case for the following configurations
    (the information in the changelog of the updated packages is
    slightly inaccurate):

    - - The "SSLVerifyClient" directive is used in a Directory or Location
    context.
    - - The "SSLCipherSuite" directive is used in a Directory or Location
    context.

    As a workaround, you may rearrange your configuration in a way that SSLVerifyClient and SSLCipherSuite are only used on the server or
    virtual host level.

    A complete fix for the problem will require a protocol change. Further information will be included in a separate announcement about this
    issue.


    In addition, this update fixes the following issues in Apache's
    mod_proxy_ftp:

    CVE-2009-3094: Insufficient input validation in the mod_proxy_ftp
    module allowed remote FTP servers to cause a denial of service (NULL
    pointer dereference and child process crash) via a malformed reply to
    an EPSV command.

    CVE-2009-3095: Insufficient input validation in the mod_proxy_ftp
    module allowed remote authenticated attackers to bypass intended access restrictions and send arbitrary FTP commands to an FTP server.


    For the stable distribution (lenny), these problems have been fixed in
    version 2.2.9-10+lenny6. This version also includes some non-security
    bug fixes that were scheduled for inclusion in the next stable point
    release (Debian 5.0.4).

    The oldstable distribution (etch), these problems have been fixed in
    version 2.2.3-4+etch11.

    For the testing distribution (squeeze) and the unstable distribution
    (sid), these problems will be fixed in version 2.2.14-2.

    This advisory also provides updated apache2-mpm-itk packages which
    have been recompiled against the new apache2 packages.

    Updated apache2-mpm-itk packages for the armel architecture are not
    included yet. They will be released as soon as they become available.


    We recommend that you upgrade your apache2 and apache2-mpm-itk packages.

    Upgrade instructions
    - --------------------
