[DLA 835-1] cakephp security update

Package : cakephp
Version : 1.3.15-1+deb7u2
CVE ID : CVE-2016-4793

Dawid Golunski from legalhackers.com discovered that cakephp, an
application development framework for PHP, contains a vulnerability
that allows attackers to spoof the source IP address. It would allow
them to bypass access control lists, or the injection of malicious
data which, if treated as sanitized by an unaware CakePHP-based
application, can lead to other vulnerabilities such as SQL injection,
XSS or command injection.

For Debian 7 "Wheezy", these problems have been fixed in version
1.3.15-1+deb7u2.

We recommend that you upgrade your cakephp packages.

An integer overflow vulnerability was discovered, potentially
allowing a local user to escalate privileges via crafted input to
the newuidmap utility.
