This allows a remote attackers to conduct cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks for example via the template parameter. For the stable distribution (lenny), this problem has been fixed in version 1.7.1-3+lenny5. For the testing distribution (squeeze), this problem will be fixed soon. For the unstable distribution (sid), this problem has been fixed in version 1.9.3-1.
