** Description changed: + == Impact == + + If setproctitle is installed, celery will call it, making any WSGI + application that imports celery at risk. + + There are a lot of those in the world. + + == Test Case == + + The patch includes a build time unit test that can replicate the bug. + + OR + + Point apache at this wsgi app: + + from wsgiref.simple_server import demo_app + import setproctitle + application = demo_app + + e.g. with WSGIScriptAlias / /var/www/foo.wsgi + + == Regression Potential == + + This patch hobbles setproctitle in embedded Pythons. Upstream later + added embedded support in 1.1.4, but I don't see any bugs being closed + as a result of that. + + So, probably minimal. + + == ORIGINAL REPORT == + When python-setproctitle is installed alongside mod_wsgi and the wsgi application imports setproctitle it causes apache to segfault every time a request comes in to that wsgi vhost.
