Package        : passenger
CVE ID         : CVE-2017-16355
Debian Bug     : 884463

An arbitrary file read vulnerability was discovered in passenger, a web
application server. A local user allowed to deploy an application to
passenger, can take advantage of this flaw by creating a symlink from
the REVISION file to an arbitrary file on the system and have its
content displayed through passenger-status.

For the stable distribution (stretch), this problem has been fixed in
version 5.0.30-1+deb9u1.

We recommend that you upgrade your passenger packages.

For the detailed security status of passenger please refer to its
security tracker page at:
https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/passenger
