DESCRIPTION
 Apache[1] is the most popular webserver in use today.
 
 An issue[2] in the mod_ssl module was reported[3] by Hartmut Keil.
 When a particular location is configured to require a specific set of
 cipher suites through the "SSLCipherSuite" directive in its directory
 or location context, a client could be able to access that location
 using any cipher suite allowed by the virtual host configuration.


SOLUTION
 It is recommended that all Apache users upgrade their packages.
