EasyApache 4 25.88 — cPanel & WHM Update

EasyApache 4 release 25.88 (October 2, 2026) updates ea-apache24 to Apache HTTP Server 2.4.69, fixing twenty vulnerabilities in one package refresh (CVE-2026-42356, CVE-2026-42528, CVE-2026-46729, CVE-2026-47360, CVE-2026-48005, CVE-2026-56153, CVE-2026-56154, CVE-2026-56449, CVE-2026-57941, CVE-2026-58415, CVE-2026-59685, CVE-2026-59797, CVE-2026-63045, CVE-2026-63292, CVE-2026-63686, CVE-2026-63718, CVE-2026-73636, CVE-2026-73637, CVE-2026-79768 and CVE-2026-93546). Individual severities are mostly low — the release's aggregate CVSS is 3.7 — but Apache serves every site on the server, so the update should go out with the next maintenance window.

What this means under a SharedLicense license

The twenty fixed flaws sit in the packaged Apache HTTP Server itself; among them is a handler type-confusion class issue (CWE-430). Unpatched, every hosted site on the server remains exposed to whatever request-handling bugs each CVE enables.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does EasyApache 4 25.88 fix?
Twenty Apache HTTP Server vulnerabilities (CVE-2026-42356, CVE-2026-42528, CVE-2026-46729, CVE-2026-47360, CVE-2026-48005, CVE-2026-56153, CVE-2026-56154, CVE-2026-56449, CVE-2026-57941, CVE-2026-58415, CVE-2026-59685, CVE-2026-59797, CVE-2026-63045, CVE-2026-63292, CVE-2026-63686, CVE-2026-63718, CVE-2026-73636, CVE-2026-73637, CVE-2026-79768 and CVE-2026-93546), all resolved by updating ea-apache24 to Apache 2.4.69. No other packages are mentioned in the release note.
Which EasyApache 4 versions are affected?
Package builds before 25.88 (October 2, 2026) that ship ea-apache24 below Apache 2.4.69. Release 25.88 is the marker release containing the fix; cPanel notes the previous EasyApache 4 25.86 PHP update separately, so servers should be current on both.
How do I apply the fix?
Run yum update 'ea-*' or use WHM → EasyApache 4 → Update, then confirm the ea-apache24 package reports Apache 2.4.69 or later. Apache picks the new version up after the package update; a graceful restart applies it to running workers.
Are these Apache flaws severe?
Individually mostly low — the release's aggregate CVSS is 3.7, and a handler type-confusion issue (CWE-430) is among the classes fixed. Volume is the point: twenty flaws closed in one update on the web server that fronts every hosted site, so take the package update promptly even though no single CVE is critical.
