CVE Id(s)      : CVE-2008-1284
Debian Bug     : 470640

It was discovered that the Horde web application framework permits arbitrary
file inclusion by a remote attacker through the theme preference parameter.

The old stable distribution (sarge) this problem has been fixed in
version 3.0.4-4sarge7.
