The previous email was sent with an incorrect package list.

The correct list of packages is included here.

Synopsis:          Moderate: httpd security update
Advisory ID:       SLSA-2014:0369-1
Issue Date:        2014-04-03
CVE Numbers:       CVE-2013-6438
                    CVE-2014-0098

--

It was found that the mod_dav module did not correctly strip leading
white space from certain elements in a parsed XML. In certain httpd
configurations that use the mod_dav module (for example when using the
mod_dav_svn module), a remote attacker could send a specially crafted
DAV request that would cause the httpd child process to crash or,
possibly, allow the attacker to execute arbitrary code with the
privileges of the "apache" user. (CVE-2013-6438)

A buffer over-read flaw was found in the httpd mod_log_config module. In
configurations where cookie logging is enabled (on Scientific Linux it
is disabled by default), a remote attacker could use this flaw to crash
the httpd child process via an HTTP request with a malformed
cookie header.
(CVE-2014-0098)

After installing the updated packages, the httpd daemon will be
restarted automatically.
