Updated libapache2-mod-perl2 packages has been released for Debian GNU/Linux 8 LTS
Package : libapache2-mod-perl2Libapache2-mod-perl2 Security Update for Debian 8 LTS
Version : 2.0.9~1624218-2+deb8u3
CVE ID : CVE-2011-2767
Debian Bug : 644169
Jan Ingvoldstad discovered that libapache2-mod-perl2 allows attackers to
execute arbitrary Perl code by placing it in a user-owned .htaccess
file, because (contrary to the documentation) there is no configuration
option that permits Perl code for the administrator's control of HTTP
request processing without also permitting unprivileged users to run
Perl code in the context of the user account that runs Apache HTTP
Server processes.
For Debian 8 "Jessie", this problem has been fixed in version
2.0.9~1624218-2+deb8u3.
We recommend that you upgrade your libapache2-mod-perl2 packages.
