In nginx 1.9.5 the spdy module was superseded by http2.

The world-readable bit (if set) has been removed from the

  ${EPREFIX}/var/log/nginx

Check if this is correct for your setup before restarting nginx!
This is a one-time change and will not happen on subsequent updates.
Furthermore nginx' temp directories got moved to '${EPREFIX}${NGINX_HOME_TMP}'

The permissions on the following directory have been reset in
order to mitigate a security bug (CVE-2016-1247, bug #605008):

  ${EPREFIX}/var/log/nginx

Check if this is correct for your setup before restarting nginx!
Also ensure that no other log directory used by any of your
vhost(s) is not writeable for nginx user. Any of your log files
used by nginx can be abused to escalate privileges!
This is a one-time change and will not happen on subsequent updates.

The one-time only attempt to adjust permissions of the
existing nginx installation failed. Be aware that we will not
try to adjust the same permissions again because now you are
using a nginx version where we expect that the permissions
are already adjusted or that you know what you are doing and
want to keep custom permissions.

Looks like your installation is vulnerable to CVE-2016-1247
(bug #605008) because nginx user is able to create files in

  ${EPREFIX}/var/log/nginx

Also ensure that no other log directory used by any of your
vhost(s) is not writeable for nginx user. Any of your log files
used by nginx can be abused to escalate privileges!

This nginx installation comes with a mitigation for the HTTPoxy
vulnerability for FastCGI, SCGI and uWSGI applications by setting
the HTTP_PROXY parameter to an empty string per default when you
are sourcing one of the default

  - 'fastcgi_params' or 'fastcgi.conf'
  - 'scgi_params'
  - 'uwsgi_params'

files in your server block(s).

If this is causing any problems for you make sure that you are sourcing the
default parameters _before_ you set your own values.
If you are relying on user-supplied proxy values you have to remove the
correlating lines from the file(s) mentioned above.
