The Apache2 webserver was updated to fix several issues:
Security issues fixed:
- The chunked transfer coding implementation in the Apache HTTP Server
did not properly parse chunk headers, which allowed remote attackers to
conduct HTTP request smuggling attacks via a crafted request, related
to mishandling of large chunk-size values and invalid chunk-extension
characters in modules/http/http_filters.c. [bsc#938728, CVE-2015-3183]
- The LOGJAM security issue was addressed by: [bnc#931723 CVE-2015-4000]
- changing the SSLCipherSuite cipherstring to disable export cipher
suites and deploy Ephemeral Elliptic-Curve Diffie-Hellman (ECDHE)
ciphers.
- Adjust 'gensslcert' script to generate a strong and unique Diffie
Hellman Group and append it to the server certificate file.
- The ap_some_auth_required function in server/request.c in the Apache
HTTP Server 2.4.x did not consider that a Require directive may be
associated with an authorization setting rather than an authentication
setting, which allowed remote attackers to bypass intended access
restrictions in opportunistic circumstances by leveraging the presence
of a module that relies on the 2.2 API behavior.
[bnc#938723 bnc#939516 CVE-2015-3185]
- Tomcat mod_jk information leak due to incorrect JkMount/JkUnmount
directives processing [bnc#927845 CVE-2014-8111]
Other bugs fixed:

[bnc#930228]
- Fixed split-logfile2 script [bnc#869790]
- remove the changed MODULE_MAGIC_NUMBER_MINOR from which confuses
modules the way that they expect functionality that our apache does
not provide [bnc#915666]
- gensslcert: CN...
