Mini-advisory on heartbeat bug on http://httpd.apache.org/ ?

2014-04-11 Thread Jeff Trawick
SSL/TLS-enabled configurations of Apache HTTP Server with OpenSSL 1.0.1a-f are vulnerable to CVE-2014-0160, the so called Heartbleed Bug. No Apache HTTP Server fix is needed to resolve this; no Apache HTTP Server configuration change besides disabling SSL/TLS completely can resolve this. Instead,

The SERVER_ADDR environment variable

2014-04-11 Thread Andre Nathan
Hello I'm trying to protect a webserver from DDoS attacks. The plan for this is to not publish its IP address anywhere public. DNS records point to a CDN service like CloudFlare. The CDN will sync to the webserver via a random entry in the zone, making it undiscoverable. The issue I'm facing is

Re: The SERVER_ADDR environment variable

2014-04-11 Thread Eric Covener
Would it be a good idea to allow SERVER_ADDR to optionally not be set? I could work on a patch to do this if the idea is considered valid. I think it's a reasonable switch to add, for the concern of inadvertent disclosure from a script. Maybe just an environment variable or note rather than a

Re: Heartbleed Bug

2014-04-11 Thread Amit Vasudevan
Heartbleed allows for disclosure of memory, which is by far not limited to the x509 keypair or the symmetric session key. A privilege boundary supported by the processor (TXT, ...) that helps protecting assets private to openssl by means of separation is therefore clearly nsufficient. Along with
