httpd fails our security scan

Solution Verified - Updated -

Issue

  • We ran a security scan and it says we need to upgrade to acquire vulnerability fixes. Is this true?
  • Apache HTTPD version is old.
  • Why does Red Hat stick to old Apache httpd version when new and security improved versions are available?

Environment

  • Red Hat Enterprise Linux
  • JBoss Enterprise Web Server (EWS)
  • Apache httpd
