suPHP 0.7.2 has been released.
This release fixes a security issue that was introduced with the 0.7.0 release. 
This issue affected the source-highlighting feature and could only be 
exploited, if the suPHP_PHPPath option was set. In this case local users which 
could create or edit .htaccess files could possibly execute arbitrary code with 
the privileges of the user the webserver was running as. 

I am not sure whether this warrants a DSA, but I've set the severity RC
since not upgrading to a new point release that fixes a security bug for
jessie would be stupid (Ubuntu has already upgraded the package for trusty).

Note that this package is orphaned, so a QA upload (that also fixes
the maintainer field) is required.
