Security Update 2004-12-02
 
Apache
Available for: Mac OS X Server v10.3.6, Mac OS X Server v10.2.8
CVE-ID: CAN-2004-1082 
Impact: Apache mod_digest_apple authentication is vulnerable to replay attacks.
Description: The Mac OS X Server specific mod_digest_apple is based on Apache's 
mod_digest. Multiple corrections for a replay problem in mod_digest were made in 
versions 1.3.31 and 1.3.32 of Apache (CAN-2003-0987). This update corrects the replay 
problem in mod_digest_apple authentication using the modifications made to Apache 
1.3.32.
 
 
Apache
Available for: Mac OS X v10.3.6, Mac OS X Server v10.3.6, Mac OS X v10.2.8, Mac OS X 
Server v10.2.8
CVE-ID: CAN-2003-0020, CAN-2003-0987, CAN-2004-0174, CAN-2004-0488, CAN-2004-0492, CAN-2004-0885, CAN
-2004-0940 Impact: Multiple vulnerabilities in Apache and mod_ssl including local privilege escalation, remote denial of service and in some modified configurations execution of arbitrary code. Description: The Apache Group fixed a number of vulnerabilities between versions 1.3.29 and 1.3.33. The Apache Group security page for Apache 1.3 is located at http://www.apacheweek.com/features/security-13. The previously installed version of Apache was 1.3.29. The default installation of Apache does not enable mod_ssl. This update fixes all of applicable issues by updating Apache to version 1.3.33 and the companion mod_ssl to version 2.8.22. Apache Available for: Mac OS X v10.3.6, Mac OS X Server v10.3.6, Mac OS X v10.2.8, Mac OS X Server v10.2.8 CVE-ID: CAN-2004-1083 Impact: Apache configurations did not fully block access to ".DS_Store" files or those starting with ".ht". Description: A default Apache configuration blocks access to files starting with ".ht" in a case sensitive way. The Apple HFS+ filesystem performs file access in a case insensitive way. The Finder may also create .DS_Store files containing the names of files in locations used to serve web pages. This update modifies the Apache configuration to restricts access to all files beginning with ".ht" or ".DS_S" regardless of capitalization. More... Apache Available for: Mac OS X v10.3.6, Mac OS X Server v10.3.6, Mac OS X v10.2.8, Mac OS X Server v10.2.8 CVE-ID: CAN-2004-1084 Impact: File data and resource fork content can be retrieved via HTTP bypassing normal Apache file handlers. Description: The Apple HFS+ filesystem permits files to have multiple data streams. These data streams can be directly accessed using special filenames. A specially crafted HTTP request can bypass an Apache file handler and directly access file data or resource fork content. This update modifies the Apache configuration to deny requests for file data or resource fork content via their special filenames. For more information, see this document. Credit to NetSec for reporting this issue. Apache 2 Available for: Mac OS X Server v10.3.6, Mac OS X Server v10.2.8 CVE-ID: CAN-2004-0747, CAN-2004-0786, CAN-2004-0751, CAN-2004-0748 Impact: Modified Apache 2 configurations could permit a privilege escalation for local users and remote denial of service. Description: A customer-modified Apache 2 configuration, where AllowOverride has been enabled, could permit a local user to execute arbitrary code as the Apache (www) user. An unmodified configuration is not vulnerable to this problem. This update also addresses bugs in Apache that could allow certain types of requests to crash the server. Apache is updated to version 2.0.52. Apache 2 ships only with Mac OS X Server, and is off by default.
