This parameter is available in apache 2.4.39 (released on 2019-04-01). [Test Case] This test case has been brought to my attention by an impacted user: " You must have an apache2 server, with an haproxy in front of it, and you initiate SSL connections with "nc" between 50 and 8000 connections and because the SSL connection process is never finished all those connections get stucked and never timeout. " [Regression Potential] * The backport already exist in Bionic/Disco (done by security team via the security channel) * It is also backported upstream into 2.4 (branch : 2.4.x) * It was tested pre-release by an impacted user, and the outcome was positive: "I have tested the below packages for enabling handshake parameter(mod_reqtimeout) in apache. Looks the package is working fine. " * Local autopkgtest inside qemu, revealed no issues: autopkgtest [12:09:48]: @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@ summary duplicate-module-load PASS htcacheclean PASS ssl-passphrase PASS chroot PASS [Other Info] [Original description] Backport the handshake feature in mod_reqtimeout (in Apache 2.4.39) to Apache 2.4.18. Lack of this feature was exhausting free connections when sent corrupted packets.
