A vulnerability has been found in SPIP, a website engine for publishing,
which allows a malicious registered author to disconnect the website
from its database, resulting in denial of service.

The oldstable distribution (lenny) doesn't include spip.

version 2.1.1-3squeeze1.

The unstable distribution (sid) will be fixed soon.
