Type/Severity
Product Enhancement Advisory
Red Hat Insights patch analysis
Identify and remediate systems affected by this advisory.
Topic
A new mod_revocator package is now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.
Description
The mod_revocator module retrieves and installs remote Certificate Revocation
Lists (CRLs) into an Apache web server without a need for a restart or user
intervention. It can be configured to retrieve CRLs from remote servers at
periodic intervals or when a CRL expires, and make them available to the Apache
Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) module, mod_nss. Additionally, it can be configured
to stop the Apache server from accepting requests if a CRL retrieval fails.
This package is required for IPA and Certificate System. (BZ#591244)
All users requiring mod_revocator should install this new package, which adds
this enhancement.
Solution
Before applying this update, make sure that all previously-released errata
relevant to your system have been applied.
This update is available via Red Hat Network. Details on how to use the Red
