security problems:

CVE-CVE-2008-3422, Debian BTS #494406

Multiple cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities in the ASP.net
class libraries in Mono 2.0 and earlier allow remote attackers to
inject arbitrary web script or HTML via crafted attributes related to

• HtmlControl.cs (PreProcessRelativeReference),
• HtmlForm.cs (RenderAttributes),
• HtmlInputButton (RenderAttributes),
• HtmlInputRadioButton (RenderAttributes), and
• HtmlSelect (RenderChildren).

CVE-CVE-2008-3906, Debian BTS #498894

CRLF injection vulnerability in Sys.Web in Mono 2.0 and earlier allows
remote attackers to inject arbitrary HTTP headers and conduct HTTP

version 1.9.1+dfsg-4~bpo40+1.

For the lenny and sid distribution the problems have been fixed in
version 1.9.1+dfsg-4.
