Topic

Updated httpd packages that fix one bug are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.

Description

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

This update fixes the following bug:

  • Previously, when the ProxyErrorOverride directive was enabled, the mod_cluster load balancer returned the 503 status code on subsequent requests for about one second. This caused failover, which then propagated through the instances. Additionaly, this bug could be used for the denial of service (DoS) attack. With this update, the requests in the described scenario are now handled correctly with the 200 status code. (BZ#1391517)

Users of httpd are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which fix this bug. After installing the updated packages, the httpd daemon will be restarted automatically.

Solution

Before applying this update, make sure all previously released errata relevant to your system have been applied.
