A vulnerability has been found in the handling of .htaccess files, allowing arbitrary code execution, DoS attacks, and allowing someone to take control of apache child processes via specially crafted .htaccess files. Upgrade to libapache-mod-ssl_2.4.10-1.3.9-1potato2 package (for potato) or libapache-mod-ssl_2.8.9-2 package (for woody) as soon as possible

Recently, a problem has been found in the handling of .htaccess files,
allowing arbitrary code execution as the web server user (regardless of
ExecCGI / suexec settings), DoS attacks (killing off apache children), and
allowing someone to take control of apache child processes - all trough
specially crafted .htaccess files.
More information about this vulnerability can be found at

This has been fixed in the libapache-mod-ssl_2.4.10-1.3.9-1potato2 package
