A flaw was found in the way HAProxy handled requests when the proxy's
configuration ('/etc/haproxy/haproxy.cfg') had certain rules that use the
hdr_ip criterion. A remote attacker could use this flaw to crash HAProxy
instances that use the affected configuration. (CVE-2013-2175)

Red Hat would like to thank HAProxy upstream for reporting this issue.
Upstream acknowledges David Torgerson as the original reporter.

HAProxy is released as a Technology Preview in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.

All users of haproxy are advised to upgrade to this updated package, which
contains a backported patch to correct this issue.");
