lighttpd (1.4.13~r1370-1ubuntu1.6) edgy-security; urgency=low
* SECURITY UPDATE: (LP: #200987)
+ debian/patches/91_CVE-2008-1270.dpatch
- mod_userdir in lighttpd 1.4.18 and earlier, when userdir.path is not set,
uses a default of $HOME, which might allow remote attackers to read
arbitrary
files, as demonstrated by accessing the ~nobody directory.
