The Apache Software Foundation this week released Apache HTTP Server 2.2.19, fixing a security flaws in the open source web server. The 2.2.19 release was triggered by a flaw in the 2.2.18 release earlier this month which created new regressions after fixing other flaws.
A fix in the Apache Portable runtime for the 2.2.18 release, which is bundled with HTTP Server triggered a possible denial of service (DoS) issue.
While Apache is patching its mainline production version HTTP Server, work is progressing on its next-generation web server as well. This week, Apache HTTP Server 2.3.12 beta was released, providing users with a glimpse into the future of Apache.
