Indeed, it can: - route HTTP requests depending on statically assigned cookies - spread load among several servers while assuring server persistence through the use of HTTP cookies - switch to backup servers in the event a main one fails - accept connections to special ports dedicated to service monitoring - stop accepting connections without breaking existing ones - add, modify, and delete HTTP headers in both directions - block requests matching particular patterns - report detailed status to authenticated users from a URI intercepted from the application --------------------------------------------------------------------------------Update Information: Update to 1.8.15 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------ChangeLog: * Thu Dec 13 2018 Ryan O'Hara - 1.8.15-1 - Update to 1.8.15 - Fix denial of service attack via infinite recursion (CVE-2018-20103, #1658881) - Fix out-of-bound reads in dns_validate_dns_response (CVE-2018-20102, #1658882) * Sat Dec 1 2018 Ryan O'Hara - 1.8.14-2 - Use of crpyt() is not thread safe (#1643941) --------------------------------------------------------------------------------References: [ 1 ] Bug #1658881 - CVE-2018-20103 haproxy: Infinite recursion via crafted packet allows stack exhaustion and denial of service [fedora-all] https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1658881 [ 2 ] Bug #1658882 - CVE-2018-20102haproxy: Out-of-bounds read in dns.c:dns_validate_dns_response() allows for memory disclosure [fedora-all] https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1658882 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------This update can be installed with the "dnf" update program.
