he only Debian fix available is in sid?
I haven't looked into it much as I don't run PHP in CGI mode
anywhere (FastCGI is OK), but it seems that this is the case.
http://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/CVE-2012-1823
Note that there is a workaround described in
> > http://blog.sucuri.net/2012/05/php-cgi-vulnerability-exploited-in-the-w=
ild.html
which blocks requests that have query strings that start with '-'.
Cheers,
Andy
