Apache HTTP Server Information Disclosure Vulnerability (Aug 2012) - Linux. The modules mod_proxy_ajp and mod_proxy_http did not always close the connection to the back end server when necessary as part of error handling. This could lead to an information disclosure due to a response mixup between users. Affected version: 2.4.1 through 2.4.2. Update to version 2.4.3 or later
