A new update is available for Ubuntu Linux. Here the announcement:
Ubuntu Security Notice USN-160-2 September 07, 2005
apache vulnerability
CAN-2005-2088
===========================================================
A security issue affects the following Ubuntu releases:
Ubuntu 4.10 (Warty Warthog)
Ubuntu 5.04 (Hoary Hedgehog)
The following packages are affected:
apache
apache-perl
apache-ssl
The problem can be corrected by upgrading the affected package to
version 1.3.31-6ubuntu0.8 (for Ubuntu 4.10), or 1.3.33-4ubuntu1 (for
Ubuntu 5.04). In general, a standard system upgrade is sufficient to
effect the necessary changes.
Details follow:
USN-160-1 fixed two vulnerabilities in the Apache 2 server. The old
Apache 1 server was also vulnerable to one of the vulnerabilities
(CAN-2005-2088). Please note that Apache 1 is not officially supported
in Ubuntu (it is in the "universe" component of the archive).
For reference, this is the relevant part of the original advisory:
Watchfire discovered that Apache insufficiently verified the
"Transfer-Encoding" and "Content-Length" headers when acting as an
HTTP proxy. By sending a specially crafted HTTP request, a remote
attacker who is authorized to use the proxy could exploit this to
bypass web application firewalls, poison the HTTP proxy cache, and
conduct cross-site scripting attacks against other proxy users.
(CAN-2005-2088)
Updated packages for Ubuntu 4.10 (Warty Warthog):
