References:
DSA-1539-1 (http://www.debian.org/security/2008/dsa-1539)

Quoting:
"Chris Schmidt and Daniel Morissette discovered two vulnerabilities
in mapserver, a development environment for spatial and mapping
applications.  The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project
identifies the following two problems:

CVE-2007-4542

    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."
