Summary
The remote host is missing an update for the 'httpd' package(s) announced via the referenced advisory.
Insight
Insight
The httpd packages provide the Apache HTTP Server, a powerful, efficient, and extensible web server. Security Fix(es): * A use-after-free flaw was found in the way httpd handled invalid and previously unregistered HTTP methods specified in the Limit directive used in an .htaccess file. A remote attacker could possibly use this flaw to disclose portions of the server memory, or cause httpd child process to crash. (CVE-2017-9798) Red Hat would like to thank Hanno Bck for reporting this issue.
