Several vulnerabilities have been discovered in mapserver, a CGI-based

The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifies the following
problems:
CVE-2011-2703
Several instances of insufficient escaping of user input, leading to
SQL injection attacks via OGC filter encoding (in WMS, WFS, and SOS
filters).
CVE-2011-2704
Missing length checks in the processing of OGC filter encoding that can
lead to stack-based buffer overflows and the execution of arbitrary code.
For the oldstable distribution (lenny), this problem has been fixed in

We recommend that you upgrade your mapserver packages.
