CVE-2003-0253
CVE-2003-0254


Description:
Three security issues have been reported in Apache HTTP Server.

Under some circumstances a weak ciphersuite may be used instead of a strong one, which was intended.

Under some circumstances an error in the prefork MPM (Multi-Processing Modules) may temporarily cause a DoS (Denial of Service).

There exists an error in the FTP proxy, which can result in a DoS. This happens when the host is IPv6 based and the FTP proxy fails to create a IPv6 socket.

Solution:
Update to version 2.0.47:
http://httpd.apache.org/
