RHBA-2012:1113 - Bug Fix Advisory
Synopsis
mod_python bug fix update
Type/Severity
Bug Fix Advisory
Red Hat Insights patch analysis
Identify and remediate systems affected by this advisory.
Topic
Updated mod_python packages that fix one bug are now available for Red Hat
Enterprise Linux 5.
Description
The mod_python packages provide a module to embed the Python language
interpreter within the Apache web server, allowing handlers to be written in
Python.
This update fixes the following bug:
- Prior to this update, the publisher module did not correctly handle certain
authentication variables. As a consequence, the web server could return an "400
Bad Request" error if the "publisher" handler was used with an authentication
scheme other than "Basic". This update modifies the publisher.py code to handle
the autentication as expected. (BZ#431684)
All users of mod_python are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which
fix this bug.
Solution
Before applying this update, make sure all previously-released errata relevant
to your system have been applied.
This update is available via the Red Hat Network. Details on how to use the Red
Hat Network to apply this update are available at
