Package : trac
Vulnerability : missing input sanitising Problem type : remote
Debian-specific: no
CVE ID : CVE-2006-3695

Felix Wiemann discovered that trac, an enhanced Wiki and issue
tracking system for software development projects, can be used to
disclose arbitrary local files. To fix this problem,

We recommend that you upgrade your trac and python-docutils
packages.

is another primary FTP site for Slackware that can be considerably
faster than downloading from ftp.slackware.com/.

(http://osuosl.org) for donating
additional FTP and rsync hosting to the Slackware project! 🙂
