Red Hat Security Advisory 2017-2483-01 - The httpd packages provide the Apache HTTP Server, a powerful, efficient, and extensible web server. Security Fix: It was discovered that the httpd's mod_auth_digest module did not properly initialize memory before using it when processing certain headers related to digest authentication. A remote attacker could possibly use this flaw to disclose potentially sensitive information or cause httpd child process to crash by sending specially crafted requests to a server.

1. Summary:

An update for httpd24-httpd is now available for Red Hat Software
Collections.

Red Hat Product Security has rated this update as having a security impact
of Important. A Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base score,
which gives a detailed severity rating, is available for each vulnerability
from the CVE link(s) in the References section.

2. Relevant releases/architectures:

Red Hat Software Collections for Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server (v. 6) - noarch, x86_64
Red Hat Software Collections for Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server (v. 7) - noarch, x86_64
Red Hat Software Collections for Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server EUS (v. 6.7) - noarch, x86_64
Red Hat Software Collections for Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server EUS (v. 7.3) - noarch, x86_64

3. Description:

The httpd packages provide the Apache HTTP Server, a powerful, efficient,
and extensible web server.

Security Fix(es):

* It was discovered that the httpd's mod_auth_digest module did not
properly initialize memory before using it when processing certain headers
related to digest authentication. A remote attacker could possibly use this
flaw to disclose potentially sensitive information or cause httpd child
process to crash by sending specially crafted requests to a server.
(CVE-2017-9788)

* It was discovered that the use of httpd's ap_get_basic_auth_pw() API
function outside of the authentication phase could lead to authentication
bypass. A remote attacker could possibly use this flaw to bypass required
authentication if the API was used incorrectly by one of the modules used
by httpd. (CVE-2017-3167)

* A NULL pointer dereference flaw was found in the httpd's mod_ssl module.
A remote attacker could use this flaw to cause an httpd child process to
crash if another module used by httpd called a certain API function during
the processing of an HTTPS request. (CVE-2017-3169)

* A NULL pointer dereference flaw was found in the mod_http2 module of
httpd. A remote attacker could use this flaw to cause httpd child process
to crash via a specially crafted HTTP/2 request. (CVE-2017-7659)

* A buffer over-read flaw was found in the httpd's ap_find_token()
function. A remote attacker could use this flaw to cause httpd child
process to crash via a specially crafted HTTP request. (CVE-2017-7668)

* A buffer over-read flaw was found in the httpd's mod_mime module. A user
permitted to modify httpd's MIME configuration could use this flaw to cause
httpd child process to crash. (CVE-2017-7679)

4. Solution:

For details on how to apply this update, which includes the changes
described in this advisory, refer to:

https://access.redhat.com/articles/11258

After installing the updated packages, the httpd daemon will be restarted
automatically.

1463197 - CVE-2017-3169 httpd: mod_ssl NULL pointer dereference
1463199 - CVE-2017-7659 httpd: mod_http2 NULL pointer dereference
1463205 - CVE-2017-7668 httpd: ap_find_token() buffer overread
1463207 - CVE-2017-7679 httpd: mod_mime buffer overread
