Fedora 28: 2019-3877 Moderate: Fix for mod_cluster Service Crash

Security, Performance updates, fiexes blocker with crashing httpd BZ 1708248. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2019-3877efca99 2019-05-10 01:35:04.470032 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------Name : mod_cluster Product : Fedora 28 Version : 1.3.11 Release : 1.fc28 URL : https://www.modcluster.io/ Summary : Apache HTTP Server dynamic load balancer with Wildfly and Tomcat libraries Description : Mod_cluster is an httpd-based load balancer. Like mod_jk and mod_proxy, mod_cluster uses a communication channel to forward requests from httpd to one of a set of application server nodes. Unlike mod_jk and mod_proxy, mod_cluster leverages an additional connection between the application server nodes and httpd. The application server nodes use this connection to transmit server-side load balance factors and lifecycle events back to httpd via a custom set of HTTP methods, affectionately called the Mod-Cluster Management Protocol (MCMP). This additional feedback channel allows mod_cluster to offer a level of intelligence and granularity not found in other load balancing solutions. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------Update Information: Security, Performance updates, fiexes blocker with crashing httpd BZ 1708248 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------ChangeLog: * Thu May 9 2019 Michal Karm Babacek 1.3.11-1 - Updates comments about Selinux in mod_cluster.conf - Removes Java libs for Tomcat 8 and Wildfly 10, to be reintroduced for Tomcat 9 in a separate package - Fix for MODCLUSTER-690 - Back port upstream warning fixes - Fix for MODCLUSTER-543 - Fix forMODCLUSTER-684 - Fix 503 found while investigating MODCLUSTER-684 - Fix for JBCS-634 decrease loops per vhosts for balancer changes - Fix for MODCLUSTER-622 segfault in process_info - Fix forMODCLUSTER-582 and clean some C++ comments - Fix for MODCLUSTER-590 - workers array for Deterministic failover is now allocated dynamically - Fix for MODCLUSTER-526 We don't use helper-> shared if it's already NULL - Fix for MODCLUSTER-550 Failover targets should be chosen deterministically - Fix for MODCLUSTER-547 - Fix CVE-2016-8612 JBCS-193 - Fix for MODCLUSTER-522 - Fix for MODCLUSTER-534 update to MODCLUSTER-435 normalizing balancer name - Security enhancements for protocol parser * Fri Feb 1 2019 Fedora Release Engineering - 1.3.3-14 - Rebuilt for https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_30_Mass_Rebuild * Fri Jul 13 2018 Fedora Release Engineering - 1.3.3-13 - Rebuilt for https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_29_Mass_Rebuild * Thu Feb 8 2018 Fedora Release Engineering - 1.3.3-12 - Rebuilt for https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_28_Mass_Rebuild --------------------------------------------------------------------------------References: [ 1 ] Bug #1374210 - CVE-2016-3110 mod_cluster: remotely Segfault Apache http server [fedora-all] https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1374210 [ 2 ] Bug #1708248 - Segfaults in Apache after updating packages (using mod_cluster and mod_ssl) https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1708248 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------This update can be installed with the "dnf" update program.
