Here are the details from the Slackware 12.2 ChangeLog:
+--------------------------+
patches/packages/httpd-2.2.12-i486-1_slack12.2.tgz: Upgraded.
 This update fixes some security issues (from the CHANGES file):
 *) SECURITY: CVE-2009-1891 (cve.mitre.org)
 Fix a potential Denial-of-Service attack against mod_deflate or other
 modules, by forcing the server to consume CPU time in compressing a
 large file after a client disconnects. PR 39605.
 [Joe Orton, Ruediger Pluem]
 *) SECURITY: CVE-2009-1195 (cve.mitre.org)
 Prevent the 'Includes' Option from being enabled in an .htaccess
 file if the AllowOverride restrictions do not permit it.
 [Jonathan Peatfield <j.s.peatfield damtp.cam.ac.uk>, Joe Orton,
 Ruediger Pluem, Jeff Trawick]
 *) SECURITY: CVE-2009-1890 (cve.mitre.org)
 Fix a potential Denial-of-Service attack against mod_proxy in a
 reverse proxy configuration, where a remote attacker can force a
 proxy process to consume CPU time indefinitely. [Nick Kew, Joe Orton]
 *) SECURITY: CVE-2009-1191 (cve.mitre.org)
 mod_proxy_ajp: Avoid delivering content from a previous request which
 failed to send a request body. PR 46949 [Ruediger Pluem]
 *) SECURITY: CVE-2009-0023, CVE-2009-1955, CVE-2009-1956 (cve.mitre.org)
 The bundled copy of the APR-util library has been updated, fixing three
 different security issues which may affect particular configurations
 and third-party modules.
 These last three CVEs were addressed in Slackware previously with an
 update to new system apr and apr-util packages.
