+------------------------------------------------------------------------+

  EnGarde Secure Linux is a secure distribution of Linux that features
  improved access control, host and network intrusion detection, Web
  based secure remote management, complete e-commerce using AllCommerce,
  and integrated open source security tools.


OVERVIEW
- --------
  There are two vulnerabilities in apache which can allow an
  attacker to write to arbitrary files or view directory indexes when
  they are not supposed to, in some configurations.


DETAIL
- ------
  The following items are from the "Announcement" file included in the
  Apache 1.3.22 tarball:

    * A vulnerability was found in the split-logfile support program. A
      request with a specially crafted Host: header could allow any file
      with a .log extension on the system to be written to. PR#7848
      CAN-2001-0730

    * A vulnerability was found when Multiviews are used to negotiate
      the directory index. In some configurations, requesting a URI with
      a QUERY_STRING of M=D could return a directory listing rather than
      the expected index page.  CAN-2001-0731

  The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has
  assigned the names CAN-2001-0730 and CAN-2001-0731 to these issues.


SOLUTION
- --------
  All users should upgrade to the most recent version, as outlined in
  this advisory.

  Guardian Digital recently made available the Guardian Digital Secure
  Update, a means to proactively keep systems secure and manage 
  system software. EnGarde users can automatically update their system
  using the Guardian Digital WebTool secure interface.

  If choosing to manually upgrade this package, updates can be
  obtained from:

    ftp://ftp.engardelinux.org/pub/engarde/stable/updates/
    http://ftp.engardelinux.org/pub/engarde/stable/updates/

  Before upgrading the package, the machine must either:

    a) be booted into a "standard" kernel; or
    b) have LIDS disabled.

  To disable LIDS, execute the command:

    # /sbin/lidsadm -S -- -LIDS_GLOBAL

  To install the updated package, execute the command:

    # rpm -Uvh <filename>

  To re-enable LIDS (if it was disabled), execute the command:

    # /sbin/lidsadm -S -- +LIDS_GLOBAL

  To verify the signature of the updated packages, execute the command:

    # rpm -Kv <filename>
