Err, in Debian, security fixes are backported... So a lower version
number doesn't mean the hole isn't fixed.

But in this case, in the opinion of Apache's maintainers, this hole
isn't worth a fix. See this message:
http://lists.debian.org/debian-security/2003/debian-security-200310/msg00226.html

(and the thread it is in)

A simply google query for the CAN number would have showed you that
thread as the second hit (even without specifying 'Debian').
