svn commit: r556619 - in /httpd/httpd/branches/2.0.x: CHANGES modules/experimental/cache_util.c

Author: jorton
Date: Mon Jul 16 06:25:11 2007
New Revision: 556619

URL: http://svn.apache.org/viewvc?view=rev&rev=556619
Log:
Merge r535617 from trunk (fixing CVE-2007-1863):

* Prevent a segmentation fault if one of the Cache-Control headers
  s-maxage, max-age, min-fresh, max-stale has no value assigned.
  In this case ignore s-maxage, max-age, min-fresh. For max-stale
  it is valid to set no value. In this case set max-stale to 1 year
  to signal that the client is accepting a stale response of any age.
