svn commit: r1179239 - /httpd/httpd/trunk/server/protocol.c

[jo...@apache.org]

Author: jorton
Date: Wed Oct  5 14:24:44 2011
New Revision: 1179239

URL: http://svn.apache.org/viewvc?rev=1179239&view=rev
Log:
SECURITY (CVE-2011-3368): Prevent unintended pattern expansion in some
reverse proxy configurations by strictly validating the request-URI:

* server/protocol.c (read_request_line): Send a 400 response if the
  request-URI does not match the grammar from RFC 2616.  This ensures
  the input string for RewriteRule et al really is an absolute path.
