COMMAND

    mod_perl

SYSTEMS AFFECTED

    Linux

PROBLEM

    Following is  based on  a Linux-Mandrake  Security Advisory.   The
    configuration  file,   /etc/httpd/conf/addon-modules/mod_perl.conf
    contained an Options  directive that was  not entirely secure  and
    allowed people to browse the  /perl/ directory.  This update  adds
    the "-Indexes" directive to  the Options command, thus  making the
    directory non-browseable.

SOLUTION

    Patches for Linux Mandrake:
