Name : mod_fcgid
Product : Fedora EPEL 4
Version : 2.2
Release : 11.el4
URL :
http://fastcgi.coremail.cn/
Summary : Apache2 module for high-performance server-side scripting
Description :
mod_fcgid is a binary-compatible alternative to the Apache module mod_fastcgi.
mod_fcgid has a new process management strategy, which concentrates on reducing
the number of fastcgi servers, and kicking out corrupt fastcgi servers as soon
as possible.

Update Information:
This update includes a back-ported fix from upstream version 2.3.6 addressing a possible
stack buffer overwrite (CVE-2010-3872), plus another back-ported fix for making the server
return a 500 error code instead of segfaulting if a FastCGI application returns no data
for a request.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This update can be installed with the "yum" update programs. Use
su -c 'yum update mod_fcgid' at the command line.
