Package        : xmlsec1
Vulnerability  : arbitrary file overwrite
Problem type   : local (remote)
Debian-specific: no
CVE ID         : CVE-2011-1425 
Debian Bug     : 620560

Nicolas Gregoire discovered that the XML Security Library xmlsec allowed
remote attackers to create or overwrite arbitrary files through
specially crafted XML files using the libxslt output extension and a
ds:Transform element during signature verification.

For the oldstable distribution (lenny), this problem has been fixed in
version 1.2.9-5+lenny1.

For the stable distribution (squeeze), this problem has been fixed in
version 1.2.14-1+squeeze1.

For the testing distribution (wheezy) and unstable distribution (sid),
this problem has been fixed in version 1.2.14-1.1.

We recommend that you upgrade your xmlsec1 packages.
