Package : lighttpd
Vulnerability : information disclosure
Problem type : remote
Debian-specific: no
CVE Id(s) : CVE-2008-1111
It was discovered that lighttpd, a fast webserver with minimal memory
footprint, would display the source to CGI scripts if their execution
failed in some circumstances.
For the stable distribution (etch), this problem has been fixed in version
1.4.13-4etch5.
For the unstable distribution, this problem will be fixed soon.
We recommend that you upgrade your lighttpd package.
