CVE-2016-9646: Debian Linux

Medium severity, CVSS 5.3. EPSS: 1.1% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.

ikiwiki before 3.20161229 incorrectly called the CGI::FormBuilder->field method (similar to the CGI->param API that led to Bugzilla's CVE-2014-1572), which can be abused to lead to commit metadata forgery.

Affected products

• Debian Debian Linux: version 7.0 only; version 8.0 only; version 9.0 only
• Ikiwiki Ikiwiki: before 3.20161229 (fixed in 3.20161229)
