CVE-2009-3299

Sven Vetsch discovered a cross-site scripting vulnerability via the resume fields.

For the stable distribution (lenny), these problems have been fixed in version 1.0.4-4+lenny4.

The oldstable distribution (etch) does not contain mahara.

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