Package        : webcalendar
Vulnerability  : missing input sanitising
Problem-Type   : remote
Debian-specific: no
CVE ID         : CVE-2006-6669

It was discovered that WebCalendar, a PHP-based calendar application,
performs insufficient sanitising in the exports handler, which allows
injection of web script.

For the old stable distribution (sarge) this problem has been fixed in
version 0.9.45-4sarge7.

The stable distribution (etch) no longer contains WebCalendar packages.

For the unstable distribution (sid) this problem has been fixed in
version 1.0.5-2.

We recommend that you upgrade your webcalendar package.
