✅ Remediation

For details on how to apply this update, which includes the changes described in this advisory, refer to: https://access.redhat.com/articles/11258 Workaround: As mentioned in the upstream security advisory, use of the c_rehash script is considered obsolete and should be replaced by the OpenSSL rehash command line tool. Workaround: As mentioned in the upstream security advisory, use of the c_rehash script is considered obsolete and should be replaced by the OpenSSL rehash command-line tool. Workaround: Set the LimitXMLRequestBody option to a value smaller than 350MB. Setting it to 0 is not recommended as it will use a hard limit (depending on 32bit or 64bit systems) which may result in an overall system out-of-memory. The default configuration is not vulnerable to this flaw, see the statement above. Workaround: Disabling mod_sed and restarting httpd will mitigate this flaw. See https://access.redhat.com/articles/10649 for more information. Workaround: Disabling mod_proxy_ajp and restarting httpd will mitigate this flaw. Workaround: Avoid passing large inputs to the libxml2 library. Workaround: Disabling mod_sed and restarting httpd will mitigate this flaw. Workaround: Mitigation for this issue is either not available or the currently available options do not meet the Red Hat Product Security criteria comprising ease of use and deployment, applicability to widespread installation base or stability. Workaround: There is no known mitigation other than restricting applications using the expat library from processing XML content. Please update the affected packages as soon as possible.
