✅ Remediation

For details on how to apply this update, which includes the changes described in this advisory, refer to: https://access.redhat.com/articles/11258 Workaround: To prevent exploitation, avoid configuring NGINX with `ngx_http_ssi_module` when `proxy_pass` and `proxy_buffering off` are simultaneously active. If Server-Side Includes (SSI) are not essential, disable the `ngx_http_ssi_module` by removing or commenting out the `ssi on;` directive. Alternatively, ensure `proxy_buffering` is explicitly enabled (`proxy_buffering on;`) when `proxy_pass` is used with SSI. A reload or restart of the NGINX service is necessary for configuration changes to apply, which may cause a brief service interruption. Workaround: To mitigate this issue, disable the ngx_http_slice_module entirely if it is not required. If the module must be used, avoid unnamed regex captures with the slice directive and explicitly disable proxy_cache_background_update. Reload or restart the NGINX service to apply these changes. Please note this may cause a brief service interruption.
