Synopsis:	Moderate: httpd security update
Issue date:	2007-07-13
CVE Names:	CVE-2007-3304

The Apache HTTP Server did not verify that a process was an Apache child
process before sending it signals. A local attacker with the ability to run
scripts on the Apache HTTP Server could manipulate the scoreboard and cause
arbitrary processes to be terminated which could lead to a denial of
service. (CVE-2007-3304).
