Package : roundup
Vulnerability : insufficient input sanitising
Problem type : remote
Debian-specific: no
CVE Id(s) : CVE-2008-1474
Debian Bug : 472643
Roundup, an issue tracking system, fails to properly escape HTML input,
allowing an attacker to inject client-side code (typically JavaScript)
into a document that may be viewed in the victim's browser.
For the stable distribution (etch), this problem has been fixed in version

We recommend that you upgrade your roundup packages.
