Maksim Malyutin discovered that the Apache mod_auth_digest module
incorrectly handled malicious input. A remote attacker could possibly use
this issue to cause Apache to crash, resulting in a denial of service.
(CVE-2016-2161)

David Dennerline and Regis Leroy discovered that the Apache HTTP Server
incorrectly handled unusual whitespace when parsing requests, contrary to
specifications. When being used in combination with a proxy or backend
server, a remote attacker could possibly use this issue to perform an
injection attack and pollute cache. This update may introduce compatibility
issues with clients that do not strictly follow HTTP protocol
specifications. A new configuration option 'HttpProtocolOptions Unsafe' can
be used to revert to the previous unsafe behaviour in problematic
environments. (CVE-2016-8743)");
