1. Summary:

Updated htdig packages that fix a security flaw are now available for
Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4.

This update has been rated as having moderate security impact by the Red Hat
Security Response Team.

3. Problem description:

The ht://Dig system is a Web search and indexing system for a small domain
or intranet.

Michael Krax reported a cross-site scripting bug affecting htdig. An
attacker could construct a carefully crafted URL which can cause a web
browser to execute malicious script once visited.  The Common
Vulnerabilities and Exposures project has assigned the name CAN-2005-0085
to this issue.

Users of htdig should upgrade to these updated packages, which contain a
backported patch, and are not vulnerable to this issue.
