Recommended update for apache2-mod_wsgi


Type: recommended
Severity: moderate
Issued: 2026-01-15
Description:
This update for apache2-mod_wsgi fixes the following issues:

Changes in apache2-mod_wsgi:

- Don't enable the module by default. Instead, include instructions in the
  description, consistent with other comparable modules, such as
  apache2-mod_fcgid, apache2-mod_jk and apache2-mod_mono.  If a reverse
  dependency of this module requires it, that package may execute
  `a2enmod wsgi`.

Update to 5.0.2 includes changes from 5.0.1:

  * Eliminate noise in logs under Python 3.13 when Python garbage collection
    decides to delay destruction of objects until a second phase, resulting in
    the wsgi.errors log object being accessed after the request had been
    completed and the log object marked as invalid. This resulted due to changes
    in garbage collection behaviour in Python 3.13.
  * Internally, when using Python 3.8 or newer, the PyConfig API will now be
    used due to deprecation and future removal of older C API alternatives.
    This was required to support Python 3.13.
  * Fix issue which could result in process crashing when values were supplied
    for user/password/realm of HTTP basic authentication which weren’t
    compliant with UTF-8 encoding format.
  * Fix memory leak in check_password() authentication hook handler.
  * Change use of deprecated thread.setDaemon to thread.daemon.
