Package : simplesamlphp
Vulnerability : insufficient input sanitation
Problem type : remote
Debian-specific: no

timtai1 discovered that simpleSAMLphp, an authentication and federation
platform, is vulnerable to a cross site scripting attack, allowing a
remote attacker to access sensitive client data.

The oldstable distribution (lenny) does not contain a simplesamlphp
package.

For the stable distribution (squeeze), this problem has been fixed in
version 1.6.3-3.

For the unstable distribution (sid), this problem has been fixed in
version 1.8.2-1.

We recommend that you upgrade your simplesamlphp packages.
