MGASA-2012-0346

Date: November 29th, 2012
Affected releases: 1, 2


Description:
Updated perl-CGI package fixes security vulnerability:

CGI.pm module before 3.63 for Perl does not properly escape newlines in
(1) Set-Cookie or (2) P3P headers, which might allow remote attackers to
inject arbitrary headers into responses from applications that use CGI.pm
(CVE-2012-5526).


Updated Packages:
Mageia 1:
perl-CGI-3.630.0-1.mga1
perl-CGI-Fast-3.630.0-1.mga1

Mageia 2:
perl-CGI-3.630.0-1.mga2
perl-CGI-Fast-3.630.0-1.mga2
