New wget packages for Debian

- ------------------------------------------------------------------------
Debian Security Advisory DSA-2088-1 security@debian.org
http://www.debian.org/security/ Florian Weimer

- ------------------------------------------------------------------------

Package : wget
Vulnerability : missing input sanitization
Problem type : local (remote)
Debian-specific: no
CVE Id(s) : CVE-2010-2252
Debian Bug : 590296

It was discovered that wget, a command line tool for downloading files
from the WWW, uses server-provided file names when creating local
files. This may lead to code execution in some scenarios.

After this update, wget will ignore server-provided file names. You
can restore the old behavior in cases where it is not desirable by
invoking wget with the new --use-server-file-name option.

For the stable distribution (lenny), this problem has been fixed in
version 1.11.4-2+lenny2.

For the unstable distribution (sid), this problem will be fixed soon.

We recommend that you upgrade your wget package.
