Debian: DSA-1539-1 Critical: Mapserver Remote Exploit Risks

Lack of input sanitizing and output escaping in the CGI
mapserver's template handling and error reporting routines leads
to cross-site scripting vulnerabilities.

CVE-2007-4629

Missing bounds checking in mapserver's template handling leads to
a stack-based buffer overrun vulnerability, allowing a remote
attacker to execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the CGI
or httpd user.

For the stable distribution (etch), these problems have been fixed in
version 4.10.0-5.1+etch2.

For the unstable distribution (sid), these problems have been fixed in
version 4.10.3-1.

We recommend that you upgrade your mapserver (4.10.0-5.1+etch2) package.
