A partial fix for CVE-2024-39884 in the core of Apache HTTP Server 2.4.61
ignores some use of the legacy content-type based configuration of
handlers. “AddType” and similar configuration, under some circumstances
where files are requested indirectly, result in source code disclosure of
local content. For example, PHP scripts may be served instead of
interpreted.
Users are recommended to upgrade to version 2.4.62, which fixes this issue.

Notes

Author	Note
mdeslaur	while the description says only 2.4.60 and 2.4.61 are affected, the problematic commit was backported to earlier releases.
