Package : webcalendar
Vulnerability : missing input sanitising
Problem-Type : remote
Debian-specific: no
CVE ID : CVE-2007-1343
It was discovered that WebCalendar, a PHP-based calendar application,
insufficiently protects an internal variable, which allows remote file
inclusion.
For the stable distribution (sarge) this problem has been fixed in
version 0.9.45-4sarge6.
The upcoming stable distribution (etch) no longer contains webcalendar
packages.
For the unstable distribution (sid) this problem will be fixed soon.
We recommend that you upgrade your webcalendar package.
