-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2012-0730 2012-01-21 21:10:48 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name : jetty Product : Fedora 16 Version : 6.1.26 Release : 8.fc16 URL : http://jetty.mortbay.org/jetty/ Summary : The Jetty Webserver and Servlet Container Description : Jetty is a 100% Java HTTP Server and Servlet Container. This means that you do not need to configure and run a separate web server (like Apache) in order to use java, servlets and JSPs to generate dynamic content. Jetty is a fully featured web server for static and dynamic content. Unlike separate server/container solutions, this means that your web server and web application run in the same process, without interconnection overheads and complications. Furthermore, as a pure java component, Jetty can be simply included in your application for demonstration, distribution or deployment. Jetty is available on all Java supported platforms. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: Back-port of upstream jetty patches for CVE-2011-4461 - hash table collisions DoS. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ChangeLog: * Mon Jan 16 2012 Jeff Johnston <[email protected]> 6.1.26-8 - Resolves CVE-2011-4461 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- References: [ 1 ] Bug #781677 - CVE-2011-4461 jetty: hash table collisions CPU usage DoS (oCERT-2011-003) https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=781677 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be installed with the "yum" update program.
