SUSE-SU-2016:1820-1

Vulnerability from csaf_suse - Published: 2016-07-18 14:06 - Updated: 2016-07-18 14:06
Summary
Security update for apache2-mod_fcgid
Severity
Moderate
Notes
Title of the patch: Security update for apache2-mod_fcgid
Description of the patch: This update for apache2-mod_fcgid fixes the following issues: * It used to be possible to set an arbitrary $HTTP_PROXY environment variable for request handlers -- like CGI scripts -- by including a specially crafted HTTP header in the request (CVE-2016-1000104). As a result, these server components would potentially direct all their outgoing HTTP traffic through a malicious proxy server. This patch fixes the issue: the updated Apache server ignores such HTTP headers and never sets $HTTP_PROXY for sub-processes (unless a value has been explicitly configured by the administrator in the configuration file). (bsc#988492)
