Hi,

the following CVE (Common Vulnerabilities & Exposures) ids were
published for trac some time ago.

CVE-2008-5646[0]:
| Unspecified vulnerability in Trac before 0.11.2 allows attackers to
| cause a denial of service via unknown attack vectors related to
| "certain wiki markup."

CVE-2008-5647[1]:
| Unspecified vulnerability in the HTML sanitizer filter in Trac before
| 0.11.2 allows attackers to conduct phishing attacks via unknown attack
| vectors.


Unfortunately the vulnerability described above is not important enough
to get it fixed via regular security update in Debian oldstable. It does
not warrant a DSA.

However it would be nice if this could get fixed via a regular point update[2].
Please contact the release team for this.

This is an automatically generated mail, in case you are already working on an
upgrade this is of course pointless.
