Public bug reported:

OS

Description:    Ubuntu 18.04.3 LTS
Release:        18.04
Codename:       bionic


I use this kind of configuration to reache the Balancer Manager.

 -------------
|Bastian Host |
|Apache Proxy | -----------> LB Apache Balancer Manger
 -------------

After Apache Update

from: 2.4.29-1ubuntu4.8
to:   2.4.29-1ubuntu4.10

The Balancer Manager behind a Proxy is not Working and i think this is comming 
with
the fix CVE-2019-10092

https://httpd.apache.org/security/vulnerabilities_24.html#CVE-2019-10092
http://changelogs.ubuntu.com/changelogs/pool/main/a/apache2/apache2_2.4.29-1ubuntu4.10/changelog


I strip down the configuration to try and explain the situation.

Install new Ubuntu 18.04 VirtualBox. From an another VM i saved the prior
Apache Packages from /var/cache/apt/archives

At that point i install also some console Browsers for testing.

:~# apt-get install lynx elinks

:~# tail -f /var/log/apache2/management_error.log

:~# elinks 127.0.0.1:81/balancer-manager
:~# lynx 127.0.0.1:81/balancer-manager

i can do update the Load and made changes. i also connect from outside with
Firefox

http://192.168.56.211:81/balancer-manager

all this creates no error log entrys, the log is still empty

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

update apache

:~# apt-get update
:~# apt-get upgrade

:~# dpkg -l | grep apache2
ii  apache2        2.4.29-1ubuntu4.10  amd64        Apache HTTP Server
ii  apache2-bin    2.4.29-1ubuntu4.10  amd64        Apache HTTP Server (modules 
and other binary files)
ii  apache2-data   2.4.29-1ubuntu4.10  all          Apache HTTP Server (common 
files)
ii  apache2-utils  2.4.29-1ubuntu4.10  amd64        Apache HTTP Server (utility 
programs for web servers)


do the same with all the Browsers and have the error log in view.

Firefox and elinks creat one single entry and updates from load etc. looks like
working but with

:~# lynx 127.0.0.1:81/balancer-manager

:~# tail -f /var/log/apache2/management_error.log

every singel submit will create an entry and for example
the Load change will not made in the balancer manager.

The string from the Log Entry is in the newest Version from

https://svn.apache.org/viewvc?view=revision&revision=1864787
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/httpd/httpd/tags/2.4.41/modules/proxy/mod_proxy_balancer.c

a downgrade to the prior Version to the Apache Packages solved the
Problem.
