Package        : sitesummary
Debian Bug     : 852623

DSA-3796-1 for apache2 introduced a regression in sitesummary: fixing
CVE-2016-8743 meant being more stringent when dealing with whitespace
patterns in HTTP requests, and that change broke the upload tool of
sitesummary-client.

For the stable distribution (jessie), this problem has been fixed in
version 0.1.17+deb8u2.

We recommend that you upgrade your sitesummary packages.
