Ubuntu security bulletins (USN-499-1 - Apache)

Today I inaugurate a new service: thanks to the Ubuntu Security Notices, I am able to provide an updated list of the Ubuntu vulnerabilities as they are discovered and posted to the ubuntu-security-announce mailing list.
I won't provide every report submitted to this list, but I think I'll select just the more interesting among them.

The first post is for the Apache-aholik ones:

USN-499-1: Apache vulnerabilities
Threat level (*): MODERATE

Affected Ubuntu versions:

• Ubuntu 6.06 LTS
• Ubuntu 6.10
• Ubuntu 7.04
• (and the corresponding versions of Kubuntu, Edubuntu, and Xubuntu)

It's recommended that you perform (at least) a standard upgrade of your system to avoid possible:

• XSS attacks (consequences: data/passwords stealing and other minor threats)
  
• Denial-of-service attacks
• Apache signal handling flaws
