The mod_revocator module retrieves and installs remote Certificate Revocation Lists (CRLs) into an Apache web server.
Bug Fixes
- 716355
- Prior to this update, the mod_revoc module could not shut down the httpd server on 32-bit platforms and the error log infinitely reported the error message "service httpd status httpd (pid ) when an expired CRL was downloaded. This update modifies mod_revocator so that the httpd server can correctly shut down and the error log now reports the error message "service httpd status httpd dead but subsys locked".

- Prior to this update, the mod_revoc module could not shut down the httpd server on 32-bit platforms when CRLUpdate failed. This update modifies mod_revocator so that the httpd server can correctly shut down when updating the CRL fails.

- Prior to this update, httpd failed to start if the 32-bit mod_revocator was installed on a 64-bit PowerPC platform. This update modifies the initialization size of the static array. Now, httpd servicestarts as expected.

- Prior to this update, CRLs could, under certain circumsatances, silently fail to be downloaded without any error message when the mod_revocator module was loaded successfully. This update resolves two segmentation violations. In addition, the setsebool -P httpd_can_network_connect=1 command can now be used to allow httpd to connect to a remote port which SELinux would otherwise deny when running mod_revocator. Now, CRLs are downloaded correctly when the mod_revocator module is running.
All users of mod_revocator are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which fix these bugs.
