Several Cross-Site-Scripting vulnerabilities have been discovered in

Null characters in the URL parameter bypass a sanity check, which
allowed remote attackers to read arbitrary files, which allowed
information disclosure.

The old stable distribution (woody) doesn't contain horde3 packages.

For the stable distribution (sarge) these problems have been fixed in
