Debian: DSA 1492-2 Critical: WML Local Denial of Service Issue

Frank Lichtenheld and Nico Golde discovered that WML, an off-line
HTML generation toolkit, creates insecure temporary files in the
eperl and ipp backends and in the wmg.cgi script, which could lead
to local denial of service by overwriting files.

The old stable distribution (sarge) is not affected.

For the stable distribution (etch) this problem has been fixed in
version 2.0.11-1etch2.

For the unstable distribution (sid) this problem has been fixed in
version 2.0.11ds1-0.2.

We recommend that you upgrade your wml package.
