Description Stefan Behte (RETIRED) gentoo-dev Security 2010-07-26 15:58:23 UTC
CVE-2010-2480 (http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2010-2480):
  Mako before 0.3.4 relies on the cgi.escape function in the Python
  standard library for cross-site scripting (XSS) protection, which
  makes it easier for remote attackers to conduct XSS attacks via
  vectors involving single-quote characters and a JavaScript onLoad
  event handler for a BODY element.
