Changelog
apache2 (2.2.12-1) unstable; urgency=low
* New upstream release:
- Adds support for TLS Server Name Indication (closes: #461917 LP: #184131).
(The Debian default configuration will be changed to use SNI in a later
version.)
- Fixes timefmt config in SSI (closes: #363964).
- mod_ssl: Adds SSLProxyCheckPeerExpire and SSLProxyCheckPeerCN directives
to enable stricter checking of remote server certificates.
* Make mod_deflate not compress the content for HEAD requests. This is a
similar issue as CVE-2009-1891.
* Enable hardening compile options.
* Switch default LogFormat from %b (size of file sent) to %O (bytes actually
sent) (closes: #272476 LP: #255124)
* Add the default LANG=C to /etc/apache2/envvars and document it in
README.Debian (closes: #511878).
* Enable localized error pages by default if the necessary modules are
loaded. Move the config for it from apache2.conf to
/etc/apache2/conf.d/localized-error-pages (closes: #467004). Clarify the
required order of the aliases in the comment (closes: #196795).
* Change default for ServerTokens to 'OS', to not announce the exact module
versions to the world (LP: #205996)
* Make a2ensite and friends ignore the same filenames as apache does for
included config files, even if LANG is not C.
* Merge source packages apache2 and apache2-mpm-itk (current itk version is
2.2.11-02). This removes the binNMU mess necessary for every apache2 upload
(closes: #500885, #512084). Add Steinar to Uploaders. Remove apache2-src
package, which is no longer necessary.
* Ship our own version of the magic config file (taken from file 4.17-5etch3)
which is still compatible with mod_mime_magic (closes: #483111).
* Add ThreadLimit to the default config and put ThreadsPerChild and
MaxClients into the correct order so that Apache does not complain
(closes: #495656).
Also add a configuration block for the event MPM in apache2.conf.
* Fix HTTP PUT with mod_dav failing to detect an aborted connection
(closes: #451563).
* Change references to httpd.conf in apache2-doc to apache2.conf
(closes: #465393).
* Clarify the recommended permissions for SSL certificates in README.Debian
(closes: #512778).
* Document in README.Debian how to name files in conf.d to avoid conflicts
with packages (closes: #493252)
* Remove 2.0 -> 2.2 upgrade logic from maintainer scripts.
* Remove other_vhosts_access.log on package purge.
