  • 1.  Need Apache httpd 2.4.62

    Posted Tue July 23, 2024 09:55 AM

    Although Apache httpd was just recently updated to version 2.4.61 in the AIX Toolbox, there is already a new 2.4.62 version to fix multiple vulnerabilities that has been rated a "Medium" severity by Tenable Nessus.  Please make Apache httpd 2.4.62 (or later) available at your earliest opportunity.

    Thank you!

    Httpd 2.4.62 is now available in AIX Toolbox. 

    You can use DNF to update to this version from the AIX Toolbox repository.

    Hi Reshma,

    Our security department is flagging Apache SSL as vulnerable. Tenable is expecting openssl 1.1.1za in their scans, but they are getting openssl 1.1.1y

    From Nessus : 

    Nessus Plugin ID:

    Nessus Plugin Name:

    Latest CVE (if applicable):

    201084

    OpenSSL 1.1.1<1.1.1za Vulnerability

    CVE-2024-5535

    We have the ifix in place :

    ID  STATE LABEL      INSTALL TIME      UPDATED BY ABSTRACT

    === ===== ========== ================= ========== ======================================

    1    S    3013sa     08/22/24 15:26:00            ifix for openssl july CVEs            

    However curl is reporting :

     curl : Apache reports for HTTP       : Server: Apache/2.4.62 (Unix) OpenSSL/1.1.1y

     curl : Apache reports for HTTPS     : Server: Apache/2.4.62 (Unix) OpenSSL/1.1.1y

    When is httpd/mod_ssl anticipated to be updated or does the ifix in place fix this vulnerability ?

    Our OS level is :  7300-02-02-2420

    Thanks

    Hi Scott,
    Installed ifix fixes the reported CVE (CVE-2024-5535) in openssl. 
    Since httpd is dynamically linked to the openssl library, it is not required to update httpd.
