updates ?

[petermp]

There is new vulnerablity in mod_ssl
If this was regular system I would simply uprgade my port( I am on FreedBSD). When DA is there how do I uprgade ?

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Two vulnerabilities were discovered in libapache-mod-ssl:

CAN-2004-0488 - Stack-based buffer overflow in the
ssl_util_uuencode_binary function in ssl_util.c for Apache mod_ssl,
when mod_ssl is configured to trust the issuing CA, may allow remote
attackers to execute arbitrary code via a client certificate with a
long subject DN.

CAN-2004-0700 - Format string vulnerability in the ssl_log function
in ssl_engine_log.c in mod_ssl 2.8.19 for Apache 1.3.31 may allow
remote attackers to execute arbitrary messages via format string
specifiers in certain log messages for HTTPS.

Thanks,

Follow these instructions and it will update it assuming the DA staff has updated customapache to include the latest version.
Currently it is compiling version 2.8.19 for apache 1.3.31
which means that they haven't updated it yet (most likely because there is no version to update to yet )
