apache http server UPGRADE

Affected: >= 2.4.0 and < 2.4.69

Fixed in: 2.4.69

Safe to downgrade to: a release before 2.4.0

1. Check installed version

apt-cache policy http-server || rpm -q http-server || http-server --version

2. UPGRADE to 2.4.69 (Debian / Ubuntu)

sudo apt update && sudo apt install --only-upgrade http-server

2. UPGRADE (RHEL / Amazon Linux / Fedora)

sudo dnf upgrade http-server

Note

Distros often backport fixes without changing the version number. Confirm with the distro advisory or changelog.

3. If no update is available yet, DOWNGRADE to a release before 2.4.0 (Debian / Ubuntu)

apt-cache madison http-server sudo apt install http-server=<VERSION_BEFORE_2.4.0> sudo apt-mark hold http-server

3. If no update is available yet, DOWNGRADE (RHEL / Amazon Linux / Fedora)

dnf --showduplicates list http-server sudo dnf downgrade http-server-<VERSION_BEFORE_2.4.0> sudo dnf versionlock add http-server

Downgrade risk

Downgrading can break dependent software and may reopen older bugs. Read the distro advisory first and test on a non-production host.

After downgrade

Restart the service, and keep the package held until a fixed release ships.
