Apache HTTP Server: Certificate Renewal Error Leads to Uncontrolled Access
OESA-2026-1529
Summary
Apache HTTP Server versions 2.4.30 to 2.4.66 have a bug that can allow unauthorized access to your website. If certificate renewal fails, the server doesn't wait before trying again, potentially leading to uncontrolled access. Update to version 2.4.66 to fix the issue and prevent unauthorized access.
What to do
- Update httpd to version 2.4.43-32.oe2003sp4.

Original title
httpd security update
Original description
Apache HTTP Server is a powerful and flexible HTTP/1.1 compliant web server.
Security Fix(es):
An integer overflow vulnerability was found in Apache HTTP Server versions 2.4.30 to 2.4.66. In case of failed ACME certificate renewal, after a number of failures (~30 days in default configurations), the backoff timer becomes 0. Certificate renewal attempts are then repeated without delays until successful. This issue affects confidentiality, integrity, and availability.(CVE-2025-55753)
Apache HTTP Server 2.4.65 and earlier with Server Side Includes (SSI) enabled and mod_cgid (but not mod_cgi) passes the shell-escaped query string to #exec cmd="..." directives.
This issue affects Apache HTTP Server before 2.4.66.
Users are recommended to upgrade to version 2.4.66, which fixes the issue.(CVE-2025-58098)
Improper Neutralization of Escape, Meta, or Control Sequences vulnerability in Apache HTTP Server through environment variables set via the Apache configuration unexpectedly superseding variables calculated by the server for CGI programs.
This issue affects Apache HTTP Server from 2.4.0 through 2.4.65.
Users are recommended to upgrade to version 2.4.66 which fixes the issue.(CVE-2025-65082)
mod_userdir+suexec bypass via AllowOverride FileInfo vulnerability in Apache HTTP Server. Users with access to use the RequestHeader directive in htaccess can cause some CGI scripts to run under an unexpected userid.
This issue affects Apache HTTP Server: from 2.4.7 through 2.4.65.
Users are recommended to upgrade to version 2.4.66, which fixes the issue.(CVE-2025-66200)
