The multipart processor in ModSecurity before 2.5.9 allows remote
attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a multipart form
datapost request with a missing part header name, which triggers a
NULL pointer dereference (CVE-2009-1902).

The PDF XSS protection feature in ModSecurity before 2.5.8 allows
remote attackers to cause a denial of service (Apache httpd crash)
via a request for a PDF file that does not use the GET method
(CVE-2009-1903).

This update provides mod_security 2.5.9, which is not vulnerable to
these issues.
