Detail

Marco d'Itri discovered that thttpd, a small, fast and secure webserver, makes use of insecure temporary files when its logfiles are rotated, which might lead to a denial of service through a symlink attack.

For the stable distribution (sarge) this problem has been fixed in version 2.23beta1-3sarge2

For the unstable distribution (sid) this problem has been fixed in version 2.23beta1-5

We recommend that you upgrade your thttpd package.
