===========================================================

A security issue affects the following Ubuntu releases:

The problem can be corrected by upgrading the affected package to

to effect the necessary changes.

Graham Dumpleton discovered an information disclosure in the
"publisher" handle of mod_python. By requesting a carefully crafted
URL for a published module page, anybody can obtain extra information
about internal variables, objects, and other information which is not
intended to be visible.
