Apache died

[Mathieu Laurent <mathieu.laurent@qwentes.be>]

Hi,

My webserver with apache (+ mod_ssl) failed when it receives a worms 
attack.

I see this message in the error log: [error] [client xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx] 
client sent HTTP/1.1 request without hostname (see RFC2616 section 
14.23): /

The father process of apache was killed.

I have the last security packages installed on the webserver for apache 
& mod_ssl.

I read the same problem on the mailing list 
http://lists.debian.org/debian-security/2002/debian-security-200209/msg00303.html 
but I didn't see no clue for this case.

Thank's

Mathieu
