*) mod_http2: avoid unnecessary data retrieval for a trace log. Allow certain
information retrievals on null bucket beams where it makes sense. [Stefan Eissing]
*) mod_unique_id: Use output of the PRNG rather than IP address and
pid, avoiding sleep() call and possible DNS issues at startup,
plus improving randomness for IPv6-only hosts. [Jan Kaluza]
*) mod_rewrite, core: Avoid the 'Vary: Host' response header when HTTP_HOST
is used in a condition that evaluates to true. PR 58231 [Luca Toscano]
*) mod_http2: v0.10.12, removed optimization for mutex handling in bucket
beams that could lead to assertion failure in edge cases.

matter with OpenSSL 1.1. [Yann Ylavic]

*) core: Disallow multiple Listen on the same IP:port when listener buckets
are configured (ListenCoresBucketsRatio > 0), consistently with the single
bucket case (default), thus avoiding the leak of the corresponding socket
descriptors on graceful restart. [Yann Ylavic]

when available. PR 57399. [Yann Ylavic, Luca Toscano]

led to spurious HTTP 502 error messages sent on upgrade connections.

*) SECURITY: CVE-2017-9789 (cve.mitre.org)
mod_http2: Read after free. When under stress, closing many connections,
the HTTP/2 handling code would sometimes access memory after it has been
freed, resulting in potentially erratic behaviour.
[Stefan Eissing]
*) SECURITY: CVE-2017-9788 (cve.mitre.org)
mod_auth_digest: Uninitialized memory reflection. The value placeholder
in [Proxy-]Authorization headers type 'Digest' was not initialized or
reset before or between successive key=value assignments.
*) COMPATIBILITY: mod_lua: Remove the undocumented exported 'apr_table'
global variable when using Lua 5.2 or later. This was exported as a
side effect from luaL_register, which is no longer supported as of
Lua 5.2 which deprecates pollution of the global namespace.

The server will continue to run, but HTTP/2 will no longer be negotiated.

default ProxyFCGIBackendType, fixing a regression with PHP-FPM. PR 61202.

*) SECURITY: CVE-2017-7668 (cve.mitre.org)
The HTTP strict parsing changes added in 2.2.32 and 2.4.24 introduced a
bug in token list parsing, which allows ap_find_token() to search past
the end of its input string. By maliciously crafting a sequence of
request headers, an attacker may be able to cause a segmentation fault,
or to force ap_find_token() to return an incorrect value.
*) SECURITY: CVE-2017-7659 (cve.mitre.org)
A maliciously constructed HTTP/2 request could cause mod_http2 to
dereference a NULL pointer and crash the server process.
*) SECURITY: CVE-2017-3169 (cve.mitre.org)
mod_ssl may dereference a NULL pointer when third-party modules call
ap_hook_process_connection() during an HTTP request to an HTTPS port.
*) SECURITY: CVE-2017-3167 (cve.mitre.org)
Use of the ap_get_basic_auth_pw() by third-party modules outside of the
authentication phase may lead to authentication requirements being
bypassed.

*) HTTP/2 support no longer tagged as "experimental" but is instead considered
fully production ready.
*) mod_http2: Fix for possible CPU busy loop introduced in v1.10.3 where a stream may keep
the session in continuous check for state changes that never happen.

protocols. [Jean-Frederic Clere]
*) MPMs unix: Place signals handlers and helpers out of DSOs to avoid
a possible crash if a signal is caught during (graceful) restart.

*) mod_rewrite: When a substitution is a fully qualified URL, and the
scheme/host/port matches the current virtual host, stop interpreting the
path component as a local path just because the first component of the
path exists in the filesystem. Adds RewriteOption "LegacyPrefixDocRoot"
to revert to previous behavior. PR60009.
