A security problem has been found in apache.  It allows users to crash
the webserver from a remote system, and should be fixed as soon as
possible.

Debian 2.0 and "slink"
- ----------------------

i386:
wget http://ftp1.us.debian.org/debian/security/apache_1.3.1-3_i386.deb
wget http://ftp1.us.debian.org/debian/security/apache-common_1.3.1-3_i386.deb
dpkg -B --install apache_1.3.1-3_i386.deb apache-common_1.3.1-3_i386.deb

alpha:
wget http://ftp1.us.debian.org/debian/security/apache_1.3.1-3_alpha.deb
wget http://ftp1.us.debian.org/debian/security/apache-common_1.3.1-3_alpha.deb
dpkg -B --install apache_1.3.1-3_alpha.deb apache-common_1.3.1-3_alpha.deb

SPARC:
wget http://ftp1.us.debian.org/debian/security/apache-common_1.3.1-3_sparc.deb
wget http://ftp1.us.debian.org/debian/security/apache_1.3.1-3_sparc.deb
dpkg -B --install apache_1.3.1-3_sparc.deb apache-common_1.3.1-3_sparc.deb

automatic upgrades:
Our tier 1 mirrors already have the additional files needed for an automatic
dselect or apt upgrade:
     * http://www.uk.debian.org/debian/ (Europe)
     * http://debian.midco.net/debian/ (South Dakota)
     * http://llug.sep.bnl.gov/debian/ (New York)
     * http://ftp1.us.debian.org/debian/ (Michigan)

NOTE: This will break the libapache-mod-perl and php3 packages
released with Debian 2.0.  A mod_perl DSO suitable for Apache 1.3.1 is
on all mirror sites in the "slink" distribution.

Thanks to Dag-Erling Smørgrav for finding this bug, and Ben Laurie for
fixing it.
