  • RHEL 3.5: A flaw was discovered in mod_ssl's handling of the "SSLVerifyClient" directive. This flaw occurs if a virtual host is configured using "SSLVerifyClient optional" and a directive "SSLVerifyClient required" is set for a specific location. Another flaw was discovered in Apache httpd where the byterange filter would buffer certain responses into memory. Red Hat has updated Apache httpd packages that correct these security issues
