[ANNOUNCE] Mod_python 3.1.4 and 2.7.11 (security)
The Apache Software Foundation and The Apache HTTP Server Project are pleased
to announce the release of versions 3.1.4 and 2.7.11 of mod_python.

This release addresses a vulnerability in mod_python's publisher handler
whereby a carefully crafted URL would expose objects that should not be
visible, leading to an information leak. The Common Vulnerabilities and
Exposures project (http://cve.mitre.org/) has assigned the name CAN-2005-0088
to this issue.

Users of the publisher handler are urged to upgrade as soon as possible.

There are no other changes or improvements from the previous version in
this release.

At this point the new version is only available as a source code archive.
Users of mod_python on Win32 platform can update their installation by simply
replacing the publisher.py file with the latest version from the source code
archive.

Mod_python is available for download from:

http://httpd.apache.org/modules/python-download.cgi
