That is a miscommunication.  Something we hope to remedy in 2.4/3.0 by
unbundling sources that are 'not invented here'.

Glad that you are running an (unreleased) expat from your os vendor!

That's nothing. If you play it forward it will install Windows.

It seems there

http://svn.apache.org/viewvc?view=revisionrevision=1002628

contains additional expat fixes, which have not been released as part of 
expat. Apr-Util conains expat 1.95.7 with those fixes added. There 
exists 1.95.8, but that doesn't seem to contain them. I don't know 
whether 1.95.8 or 2.0.1 are vulnerable or not.


Concerning the split brigade fix, note that a similar problem has been 
fixed in the module mod_reqtimeout. This module is relatively young, so 
not many configurations already activate it.

Rainer

From these two flaws?  Only if your external expat is also up-to-date, refer
that question to the expat community.
