One program (apache) on one server (auth) was up to date at a certain point (March).


Almost good: Apache is the server. So it is:

on one machine, the server (Apache) was up to date (version 2.2.17) when the violation happened.

Since these servers work in parallel, they are also updated in parallel, so the unsourced claim that said that they were out of date is highly unlikely.

The term "server" is used both for a computer hosting server software and each individual server software (e.g. Apache) itself... so your correction is unnecessary.

But since you're trying to nitpick, I'm going to nitpick further and say that you don't know Apache was up-to-date when the attack happened. Strictly speaking it's possible they downgraded after March 23 for some strange reason.


In fact I said that it's highly unlikely, not that it's certain
