MGASA-2012-0225

Date: August 18th, 2012
Affected releases: 1


Description:
Updated perl-Data-FormValidator package fixes security vulnerability:

The Data::FormValidator module 4.66 and earlier for Perl, when
untaint_all_constraints is enabled, does not properly preserve the
taint attribute of data, which might allow remote attackers to bypass
the taint protection mechanism via form input (CVE-2011-2201).


Updated Packages:
perl-Data-FormValidator-4.660.0-1.1.mga1
