Hi,

I've backported to the stable cbrpager release all the security changes for
package cbrpager fixing CVE-2008-2575, included in the last upstream
cbrpage version 0.9.18.

I've NOT included any other changes.

The patch applied is attached. Please tell me if it is ok to upload it to
stable-proposed-updates.

Salud,
