Comment 1 Dwayne Bailey 2010-10-29 15:50:20 UTC
This is fixed upstream for 2.1:
http://translate.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/translate/src/branches/Pootle-2.1/local_apps/pootle_store/views.py?r1=16167&r2=16166&pathrev=16167

This will be fixed with upstreams release of 2.1.2 bug fix release.

Comment 2 Vincent Danen 2010-10-29 20:47:52 UTC
I see that 2.1.2 is now available:

http://sourceforge.net/projects/translate/files/Pootle/2.1.2/

But the README.txt there does not mention this security flaw.  Requesting clarification on whether we can make this bug public and get updates into Fedora.

Comment 3 Vincent Danen 2010-10-29 20:48:19 UTC
Sorry, RELEASE.txt.

Comment 4 Tomas Hoger 2010-10-30 21:07:13 UTC
RELEASE.txt contains:

This release includes an important security fix to a cross site
scripting vulnerability in the translate page. All users are encouraged
to upgrade immediately.

Fedora updates are submitted already, making this public so this bug can be added to the bodhi update request.
