Summary
apache2 vulnerabilities
Details

Emmanuel Dreyfus discovered that third-party modules using the ap_get_basic_auth_pw() function outside of the authentication phase may lead to authentication requirements being bypassed. This update adds a new ap_get_basic_auth_components() function for use by third-party modules. (CVE-2017-3167)

Vasileios Panopoulos discovered that the Apache mod_ssl module may crash when third-party modules call ap_hook_process_connection() during an HTTP request to an HTTPS port. (CVE-2017-3169)

Javier Jiménez discovered that the Apache HTTP Server incorrectly handled parsing certain requests. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to cause the Apache HTTP Server to crash, resulting in a denial of service. (CVE-2017-7668)

ChenQin and Hanno Böck discovered that the Apache mod_mime module incorrectly handled certain Content-Type response headers. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to cause the Apache HTTP Server to crash, resulting in a denial of service. (CVE-2017-7679)
