    Package : libapache2-mod-fcgid
    Vulnerability : inactive resource limits
    Problem type : remote
    Debian-specific: no
    CVE ID : CVE-2012-1181
    Debian Bug : 615814

    It was discovered that the Apache FCGID module, a FastCGI implementation,
    did not properly enforce the FcgidMaxProcessesPerClass resource limit, rendering this control ineffective and potentially allowing a virtual
    host to consume excessive resources.

    For the stable distribution (squeeze), this problem has been fixed in
    version 1:2.3.6-1+squeeze1.

    For the testing distribution (wheezy), this problem will be fixed soon.

    For the unstable distribution (sid), this problem has been fixed in
    version 1:2.3.6-1.1.

    We recommend that you upgrade your libapache2-mod-fcgid packages.
