Description:Summary:
The remote host is missing an update for the Debian 'libapache-mod-python' package(s) announced via the DSA-689-1 advisory.

Vulnerability Insight:
Graham Dumpleton discovered a flaw which can affect anyone using the publisher handle of the Apache Software Foundation's mod_python. The publisher handle lets you publish objects inside modules to make them callable via URL. The flaw allows a carefully crafted URL to obtain extra information that should not be visible (information leak).

For the stable distribution (woody) this problem has been fixed in version 2.7.8-0.0woody5.

For the unstable distribution (sid) this problem has been fixed in version 2.7.10-4 of libapache-mod-python and in version 3.1.3-3 of libapache2-mod-python.

We recommend that you upgrade your libapache-mod-python package.

Affected Software/OS:
'libapache-mod-python' package(s) on Debian 3.0.

Solution:
Please install the updated package(s).
