(RHSA-2014:0825) Moderate: Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform 6.2 httpd security update

Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform 6 is a platform for Java
applications based on JBoss Application Server 7.

It was found that the mod_dav module did not correctly strip leading white
space from certain elements in a parsed XML. In certain httpd
configurations that use the mod_dav module (for example when using the
mod_dav_svn module), a remote attacker could send a specially crafted DAV
request that would cause the httpd child process to crash or, possibly,
allow the attacker to execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the
“apache” user. (CVE-2013-6438)

A buffer over-read flaw was found in the httpd mod_log_config module.
In configurations where cookie logging is enabled, a remote attacker could
use this flaw to crash the httpd child process via an HTTP request with a
malformed cookie header. (CVE-2014-0098)

All users of the httpd packages for Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application
Platform 6.2 as provided from the Red Hat Customer Portal are advised to
apply this update. The JBoss server process must be restarted for the
update to take effect.
