    - -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Debian Security Advisory DSA-2020-1 [email protected] http://www.debian.org/security/ Nico Golde March 20th, 2010 http://www.debian.org/security/faq
    - --------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Package : ikiwiki
    Vulnerability : insufficient input sanitization
    Problem type : local/remote
    Debian-specific: no
    Debian bug : none
    CVE ID : none assigned yet

    Ivan Shmakov discovered that the htmlscrubber component of ikwiki, a wiki compiler, performs insufficient input sanitization on data:image/svg+xml
    URIs. As these can contain script code this can be used by an attacker
    to conduct cross-site scripting attacks.


    For the stable distribution (lenny), this problem has been fixed in
    version 2.53.5.

    For the testing distribution (squeeze), this problem has been fixed in
    version 3.20100312.

    For the unstable distribution (sid), this problem has been fixed in
    version 3.20100312.
