Several vulnerabilities have been discovered in dokuwiki, a standards compliant simple to use wiki. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifies the following problems :- CVE-2010-0287 It was discovered that an internal variable is not properly sanitized before being used to list directories. This can be exploited to list contents of arbitrary directories.
- CVE-2010-0288 It was discovered that the ACL Manager plugin doesn't properly check the administrator permissions. This allow an attacker to introduce arbitrary ACL rules and thus gaining access to a closed Wiki.
- CVE-2010-0289 It was discovered that the ACL Manager plugin doesn't have protections against cross-site request forgeries (CSRF). This can be exploited to change the access control rules by tricking a logged in administrator into visiting a malicious website.

Upgrade the dokuwiki package.For the stable distribution (lenny), these problems have been fixed in version 0.0.20080505-4+lenny1.
