Vulnerability Assessment Summary
DSA-1190-1 maxdb-7.5.00

Detailed Explanation for this Vulnerability Assessment

Oliver Karow discovered that the WebDBM frontend of the MaxDB database
performs insufficient sanitising of requests passed to it, which might
lead to the execution of arbitrary code.
For the stable distribution (sarge) this problem has been fixed in
version 7.5.00.24-4.
For the unstable distribution (sid) this problem will be fixed soon.
We recommend that you upgrade your maxdb-7.5.00 package.
