Apache-SSL Optional Client Certificate Vulnerability
------------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY
If configured with SSLVerifyClient set to 1 or 3 (client certificates
optional) and SSLFakeBasicAuth, Apache-SSL would permit a client to use
real basic authentication to forge a client certificate.
To forge a certificate the attacker needs the "one-line DN" of a valid
user, as provided by a faked basic auth in Apache-SSL, and the fixed
password (which is "password" by default).
DETAILS
Vulnerable systems:
* Apache-SSL version 1.3.28 and prior
* Apache-SSL version 1.52 and prior
Immune systems:
* Apache-SSL version 1.3.29
* Apache-SSL version 1.53
Fix:
Install Apache-SSL 1.3.29+1.53 from the usual places (see
<http://www.apache-ssl.org/> http://www.apache-ssl.org/).
