              Apache HTTP Server 2.4.3 Released

 The Apache Software Foundation and the Apache HTTP Server Project
 are pleased to announce the release of version 2.4.3 of the Apache
 HTTP Server ("Apache").  This version of Apache is our 3rd GA
 release of the new generation 2.4.x branch of Apache HTTPD and
 represents fifteen years of innovation by the project, and is
 recommended over all previous releases. This version of Apache is
 principally a security and bug fix release, including the following
 2 security fixes:

  *) SECURITY: CVE-2012-3502  (cve.mitre.org)
     mod_proxy_ajp, mod_proxy_http: Fix an issue in back end
     connection closing which could lead to privacy issues due
     to a response mixup. PR 53727.

  *) SECURITY: CVE-2012-2687 (cve.mitre.org)
     mod_negotiation: Escape filenames in variant list to prevent an
     possible XSS for a site where untrusted users can upload files to
     a location with MultiViews enabled.

 Apache HTTP Server 2.4.3 is available for download from:

   http://httpd.apache.org/download.cgi

 Apache 2.4 offers numerous enhancements, improvements, and performance
 boosts over the 2.2 codebase.  For an overview of new features
 introduced since 2.4 please see:

   http://httpd.apache.org/docs/trunk/new_features_2_4.html

 Please see the CHANGES_2.4 file, linked from the download page, for a
 full list of changes. A condensed list, CHANGES_2.4.3 includes only
 those changes introduced since the prior 2.4 release.  A summary of all 
 of the security vulnerabilities addressed in this and earlier releases 
 is available:

   http://httpd.apache.org/security/vulnerabilities_24.html

 This release requires the Apache Portable Runtime (APR) version 1.4.x
 and APR-Util version 1.4.x. The APR libraries must be upgraded for all
 features of httpd to operate correctly.

 This release builds on and extends the Apache 2.2 API.  Modules written
 for Apache 2.2 will need to be recompiled in order to run with Apache
 2.4, and require minimal or no source code changes.

   http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/httpd/httpd/trunk/VERSIONING

 When upgrading or installing this version of Apache, please bear in mind
 that if you intend to use Apache with one of the threaded MPMs (other
 than the Prefork MPM), you must ensure that any modules you will be
 using (and the libraries they depend on) are thread-safe.

 NOTE to Windows users: The issues with AcceptFilter None replacing
      Win32DisableAcceptEx appears to have resolved starting with version
      2.4.3 make Apache httpd 2.4.x suitable for Windows servers.
