Mandriva Linux Security Advisory MDVSA-2009:184
http://www.mandriva.com/security/
_______________________________________________________________________
Package : apache-mod_security
Date : July 31, 2009
Affected: Enterprise Server 5.0
_______________________________________________________________________
Problem Description:
Multiple vulnerabilities has been found and corrected in mod_security:
The multipart processor in ModSecurity before 2.5.9 allows remote
attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a multipart form
datapost request with a missing part header name, which triggers a
NULL pointer dereference (CVE-2009-1902).
The PDF XSS protection feature in ModSecurity before 2.5.8 allows
remote attackers to cause a denial of service (Apache httpd crash)
via a request for a PDF file that does not use the GET method
(CVE-2009-1903).
This update provides mod_security 2.5.9, which is not vulnerable to
these issues.
