This update addresses a few security issues.
mod_ssl: A partial fix for the TLS renegotiation prefix injection attack
by rejecting any client-initiated renegotiations.
mod_proxy_ajp: Respond with HTTP_BAD_REQUEST when the body is not sent
when request headers indicate a request body is incoming; not a case of
HTTP_INTERNAL_SERVER_ERROR.
mod_isapi: Do not unload an isapi .dll module until the request processing
is completed, avoiding orphaned callback pointers.
[This is the most serious flaw, but does not affect Linux systems]
