  script_tag(name:"insight", value:"lighttpd was updated to version 1.4.35, fixing bugs and
  security issues:

  CVE-2014-2323: SQL injection vulnerability in
  mod_mysql_vhost.c in lighttpd allowed remote attackers to
  execute arbitrary SQL commands via the host name, related
  to request_check_hostname.

  CVE-2014-2323: Multiple directory traversal vulnerabilities
  in (1) mod_evhost and (2) mod_simple_vhost in lighttpd
  allowed remote attackers to read arbitrary files via a ..
  (dot dot) in the host name, related to
  request_check_hostname.

  More information can be found on the referenced lighttpd advisory
  page.

  Other changes:

  * [network/ssl] fix build error if TLSEXT is disabled

  * [mod_fastcgi] fix use after free (only triggered if
  fastcgi debug is active)

  * [mod_rrdtool] fix invalid read (string not null
  terminated)

  * [mod_dirlisting] fix memory leak if pcre fails

  * [mod_fastcgi, mod_scgi] fix resource leaks on spawning
  backends

  * [mod_magnet] fix memory leak

  * add comments for switch fall throughs

  * remove logical dead code

  * [buffer] fix length check in buffer_is_equal_right_len

  * fix resource leaks in error cases on config parsing and
  other initializations

  * add force_assert() to enforce assertions as simple
  assert()s are disabled by -DNDEBUG (fixes #2546)

  * [mod_cml_lua] fix null pointer dereference

  * force assertion: setting FD_CLOEXEC must work (if
  available)

  * [network] check return value of lseek()

  * fix unchecked return values from
  stream_open/stat_cache_get_entry

  * [mod_webdav] fix logic error in handling file creation
  error

  * check length of unix domain socket filenames

  * fix SQL injection / host name validation (thx Jann
  Horn)for all the changes see
  /usr/share/doc/packages/lighttpd/NEWS");
