This bug was fixed in the package apache2 - 2.2.4-3ubuntu0.2

---------------
apache2 (2.2.4-3ubuntu0.2) gutsy-security; urgency=low

  [ Emanuele Gentili ]
  * SECURITY UPDATE:
   + debian/patches/111_CVE-2008-2364.dpatch (LP: #239894)
    - The ap_proxy_http_process_response function in mod_proxy_http.c
      in the mod_proxy module does not limit the number of forwarded
      interim responses, which allows remote HTTP servers to cause a
      denial of service (memory consumption) via a large number of
      interim responses.
