    Package : phppgadmin
    Vulnerability : missing input sanitising
    Problem-Type : remote
    Debian-specific: no
    CVE ID : CAN-2005-2256
    BugTraq ID : 14142

    A vulnerability has been discovered in phppgadmin, a set of PHP
    scripts to administrate PostgreSQL over the WWW, that can lead to
    disclose sensitive information. Successful exploitation requires that
    "magic_quotes_gpc" is disabled.

    the old stable distribution (woody) is not affected by this problem.

    For the stable distribution (sarge) this problem has been fixed in
    version 3.5.2-5.

    For the unstable distribution (sid) this problem has been fixed in
    version 3.5.4.

    We recommend that you upgrade your phppgadmin package.

    Upgrade Instructions
    - --------------------

            will fetch the file for you
    dpkg -i file.deb

    sources.list as given below:

    apt-get update
