Greetings,

Our security guy noticed this alert about a XSS vulnerability in
mod_negotiation: http://www.mindedsecurity.com/MSA01150108.html.
According to the link, it applies to apache <= 2.2.6, so no worries for
2.2.8.

However, when I double-check the changelog for 2.2.8
(http://www.apache.org/dist/httpd/CHANGES_2.2.8) there is no specific
mention of a patch in mod_negotiation...

>From a quick inspection of the source code, there was no change to
mod_negotiation.c between 2.2.6 and 2.2.8 so can I conclude that the
vulnerability is still present in 2.2.8? (ie, can it have been handled
at a higher level?)

Rgds,
Owen Boyle
