This update corrects the search feature in trac, an enhanced wiki and issue tracking system for software development projects, which broke with the last security update. For completeness please find below the original advisory text:

Several vulnerabilities have been discovered in trac, an enhanced wiki and issue tracking system for software development projects. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifies the following problems:

• CVE-2005-4065

  Due to missing input sanitising it is possible to inject arbitrary SQL code into the SQL statements.

• CVE-2005-4644

  A cross-site scripting vulnerability has been discovered that allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML.

The old stable distribution (woody) does not contain trac packages.

For the stable distribution (sarge) these problems have been fixed in version 0.8.1-3sarge4.

For the unstable distribution (sid) these problems have been fixed in version 0.9.3-1.

We recommend that you upgrade your trac package.
