Need upgrade Packages on CentOS 6
 
Hi,

I need to upgrade the Apache version 2.4.3x running in a CentOS 6.0.

If I am correct, CentOS 6 doesn't come with any more updates. Therefore, is it possible to upgrade apache to a non vulnerable version (ex: 2.4.50)?

What can I do?

Appreciate your replies and suggestions on above.

Please note that I am a learner on Linux platform.

Cheers!!!

Install any of RHEL 8 clones. E.g. AlmaLinux. Or Rocky. They come with patched Apache 2.4.37.

Well, I guess that you could always compile from source. You'll have to see what the dependencies on Apache x.xx are and make sure that you have them installed.

https://directory.apache.org/sources.html
https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/dir...pacheds/trunk/
https://downloads.apache.org/httpd/
https://www.apache.org/dist/httpd/httpd-${pkgver}.tar.bz2

Time to start thinking about moving to a maintained distribution. Might take you a while to move over to it.
