[users@httpd] Apache Security Page and CVE-2011-3192

Why is there no information about the recent header Rang DoS  vulnerability
in Apache on the Apache security page?

 http://httpd.apache.org/security/

I would have expected at least to see some mention of it, and possible
work-arounds.

Actually, all published vulnerabilities are supposed to be listed.

Only vulnerabilities which are fixed in a release are listed there.
As 2.2.20 is now released, the corresponding 2.2 security page has
been updated.

An advisory is available with more detailed information about the
vulnerability, including workarounds.  The most recent version is at
