Nginx out-dated

prprtl

New Pleskian
Plesk is shipping their own out-dated build of Nginx 1.6.0 (package sw-nginx). Several important bug fixes and security fixes have been released in updates 1.6.1, 1.6.2 and 1.6.3. See http://nginx.org/en/CHANGES-1.6

Please update the Nginx package that is shipped with Plesk.
 
It is updated in upcoming Plesk 12.1 version:

[root@ppu12-1 ~]# rpm -qa | grep nginx
sw-nginx-1.6.2-centos6.14120917.i386

[root@ppu12-1 ~]# plesk version
Product version: 12.1.21
Build date: 2015/04/24 19:00
Build target: CentOS 6
Revision: 340590
Architecture: 32-bit
Wrapper version: 1.2
 
Compile nginx by yourself ;) You get the flags with nginx -V

This works for me very well and with this method i got spdy support :)
 
@IgorG: that is really really late for security updates.
Nginx 1.6.1 was released on 05 Aug 2014 and Nginx 1.6.2 on 16 Sep 2014. The current latest Plesk stable version (Product version: 12.0.18 Update #44) still comes with the vulnerable version Nginx 1.6.0.

Would it be possible to use the Nginx packages from EPEL packages on Plesk servers in stead of the sw-nginx package?
 
Actual version of nginx will be included in Plesk 12.1 release.
 
[root@ppu12-1 ~]# rpm -qi sw-nginx | grep Version
Version : 1.9.2 Vendor: nginx inc.

[root@ppu12-1 ~]# plesk version
Product version: 12.5.27
Build date: 2015/07/13 19:00
 
Yes, but this version is a "preview version", it's not a "stable version".

When can we hope to have the "stable version of Plesk 12.1 or more"?


Thanks
 
igorG, where have you found the 1.9.2 version on Plesk 12.5? I am still seeing 1.6.2

[root@xs6 ~]# rpm -qi sw-nginx | grep Version
Version : 1.6.2

[root@xs6 ~]# plesk version
Product version: 12.5.27
Build date: 2015/07/17 19:00
OS version: CentOS 7.1.1503
Revision: 343195
Architecture: 64-bit
Wrapper version: 1.2
 
Guys, sorry, 1.9.2 for Plesk 12.5 was not published yet. It is just for internal testing, etc. We will include 1.9.2 version in official release.
