Urgency: high
Maintainer: James Troup <jjtroup@comp.brad.ac.uk>
Description: 
 dwww       - Read all on-line documentation via WWW
Changes: 
 dwww (1.4.1-1) frozen unstable; urgency=high
 .
   * Fixed major security flaw: dwww.cgi would accept backquotes
     and '$' characters, then pass them on to bash.  This enables
     people to execute commands as the CGI user.  Particularily
     dangerous if someone configures their web server to run
     CGI programs as root. dwww.cgi was modified to convert all
     backquotes and dollar signs into underscores.
   * dwww.cgi: don't convert '+' characters into spaces - fixes
     bug #8563 (Thanks Lars Wirzenius and Joost Witteveen)
   * dwwwconfig: place quotes around DWWW_SERVERTYPE in
     /etc/dwww/dwww.conf to cope with server names with space
     such as CERN httpd - fixes bug #8525
   * /etc/cron.daily/dwww: added line to cd to /var/spool/dwww
     to prevent error message that someone was having (not me)
     - fixed bug #8591
