Rawhide already has 2.2.1 (turba-2.2.1-1.fc10).  There's no contact.php in 2.1.7
currently in F8 and F9, and I failed to find this code elsewhere.  Double-check
is appreciated though.

Thanks, my plan was already to update F-8/F-9 to 2.2.1.  Feel free to untag the
updates as security though.

Also EPEL-5 now has an updated version (2.2.1).

Comment 4 Fedora Update System 2008-06-25 02:51:20 UTC
turba-2.2.1-1.fc8 has been pushed to the Fedora 8 testing repository.  If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report.
 If you want to test the update, you can install it with 
 su -c 'yum --enablerepo=updates-testing update turba'.  You can provide feedback for this update here: http://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/F8/FEDORA-2008-5652

Given the information in comment #0, I changed them to enhancement.  Feel free
to request stable as needed.  Sorry for the delay.

No further action needed here, closing.

Comment 7 Tomas Hoger 2009-04-24 07:25:07 UTC
CVE-2008-6746:

Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the contact display view
in Turba Contact Manager H3 before 2.2.1 allows remote attackers to
inject arbitrary web script or HTML via the contact name.
