------------------------------------------------------------------
**REVISED 01**
A. Background
The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org)
has identified multiple potential vulnerabilities in the Apache
HTTP Server. It affects the following HP product numbers:
B9415AA Apache 1.3.x HP-UX releases 11.00 and 11.11
B9416AA Apache 2.x HP-UX releases 11.00 and 11.11
B9415AA Apache 1.3.x HP-UX releases 11.20 and 11.22
B9416AA Apache 2.x HP-UX releases 11.20 and 11.22
B9416BA Apache 2.x IPv6 HP-UX release 11.11
-->B5411EA Virtualvault 4.5 (VVOS 11.04)
-->B5411FA Virtualvault 4.6 (VVOS 11.04)
With this release HP has upgraded to Apache 2.0.43 and
Apache 1.3.27, and fixes certain known potential vulnerabilities
in the Apache HTTP Server.
The release incorporates fix for the following problems:
CAN-2002-0839 : Apache 1.3.26
CAN-2002-0840 : Apache 1.3.26 and Apache 2.0.39
CAN-2002-0843 : Apache 1.3.26 and Apache 2.0.39
CAN-2002-1156 : Apache 2.0.39
More details on this information can be found at
http://www.apache.org.
The CVE issues can be found at http://cve.mitre.org
The Apache Group has released Apache 2.0.43 and Apache
1.3.27 as the best known version that fixes the problems
identified in the above mentioned CVE issues.
Before updating, make sure to stop any previous HP Apache binary.
Otherwise, the previous binary will continue running, preventing
the new one from automatically starting, although the
installation would be successful.
The command to stop the HP Apache binary is:
for 1.3.26:
/opt/apache/bin/apachectl stop
for 2.0.39:
/opt/hpapache2/bin/apachectl stop
HP Apache automatically starts upon installation if port 80
is available.
Installation of this new version of HP Apache over an existing
HP Apache installation is supported, while installation over a
non-HP Apache is NOT supported.
**REVISED 01**

bundles, instead of patches. To retrieve them, go to
