Apache 2.0.44 Released

Posted by chrisd on from the apache-even-more-ready dept.

rbowen writes "The Apache Software Foundation is pleased to announce the release of Apache 2.0.44, which addresses a number of security issues. Download it from your favorite mirror." Rich notes that it fixes some important security problems (under Windows) for the Windows version. Also interesting is that now there truly is a split between a development and regular releases, adopting the Linux kernel model, with 2.1 being the dev Apache tree and 2.0 being the release tree.

    The biggest security problem with running apache on Windows is Windows. Anyone who uses windows for a server deserves what happens to their server.

    Please explain how a windows box with minimal services and the latest updates is any less secure than your average redhat box? I'm waiting.
