Re: [SECURITY] CVE-2008-5519: Apache Tomcat mod_jk information disclosure vulnerability

Hi,

We are also getting this error in mod_proxy_ajp (2.2.11 on Windows)

Anyone know if this is the same fix?
https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=46949

Seems to be fixed.

/Jakob

Re: [SECURITY] CVE-2008-5519: Apache Tomcat mod_jk information disclosure vulnerability

Hi,

the problem is not fixed in httpd 2.2.11. It will be fixed in 2.2.12. A
source patch is available under the URL

http://www.apache.org/dist/httpd/patches/apply_to_2.2.11/

I assume, that you don't build yourself, because most Windows httpd
users start with a binary download. There is no updated (patched)
Windows binary for 2.2.11 until now.

Since you also put this question into the httpd bugzilla issue, I assume
you will get some answer there as well.

It is better to run this discusion either in BZ46949, or on the httpd
list. The tomcat lists are not the right place for topics, that are
related to problems w.r.t. httpd only.

Regards,

Rainer
