Description David Walser 2014-03-13 18:14:53 CET
Upstream has released version 1.680 today (March 13).

The official release announcement and changelog hasn't been posted yet.

Looking at the git commit log, it looks like there are multiple security fixes related to log viewing, including an XSS issue, and an issue that allows someone to view any file on the server system.  I'll post an advisory once the upstream changelog is available.

The Mageia 3 update will also fix the two issues reported in Bug 10713.

Updated packages in core/updates_testing:
========================
webmin-1.680-1.mga3
webmin-1.680-1.mga4

from SRPMS:
webmin-1.680-1.mga3.src.rpm
webmin-1.680-1.mga4.src.rpm
