Bug Fix(es):
* proxy rewrite to unix socket fails with CVE-2021-40438 fix (BZ#2022319)
Additional changes:
* To fix CVE-2022-29404, the default value for the "LimitRequestBody" directive in the Apache HTTP Server has been changed from 0 (unlimited) to 1 GiB.
On systems where the value of "LimitRequestBody" is not explicitly specified in an httpd configuration file, updating the httpd package sets "LimitRequestBody" to the default value of 1 GiB. As a consequence, if the total size of the HTTP request body exceeds this 1 GiB default limit, httpd returns the 413 Request Entity Too Large error code.
If the new default allowed size of an HTTP request message body is insufficient for your use case, update your httpd configuration files within the respective context (server, per-directory, per-file, or per-location) and set your preferred limit in bytes. For example, to set a new 2 GiB limit, use:
LimitRequestBody 2147483648
Systems already configured to use any explicit value for the "LimitRequestBody" directive are unaffected by this change.
