mod_python -- information leakage vulnerability

Description:

Mark J Cox reports:

Graham Dumpleton discovered a flaw which can affect anyone using the publisher handle of the Apache Software Foundation mod_python. The publisher handle lets you publish objects inside modules to make them callable via URL. The flaw allows a carefully crafted URL to obtain extra information that should not be visible (information leak).
