    Trustix Secure Linux Security Advisory #2002-0034
    
    Package name:      apache
    Summary:           Security fix and version upgrade
    Date:              2002-02-28

    Problem description:
      The mod_ssl module in Apache utilizes OpenSSL for the SSL implementation. 
      The version in the old apache package made use of the underlying OpenSSL 
      routines in a manner which could overflow a buffer within the implementation.
      This release (mod_ssl-2.8.7-1.3.23) fixes the problem.
    
    Action:
      We recommend that all systems with this package installed are upgraded.
