Debian: gallery fix several vulnerabilities DSA-642-1
Summary
Jim Paris discovered a cross site scripting vulnerability which
allows code to be inserted by using specially formed URLs.
CVE-NOMATCH
The upstream developers of gallery have fixed several cases of
possible variable injection that could trick gallery to unintended
actions, e.g. leaking database passwords.
For the stable distribution (woody) these problems have been fixed in
version 1.2.5-8woody3.
For the unstable distribution (sid) these problems have been fixed in
version 1.4.4-pl4-1.
We recommend that you upgrade your gallery package.
