Hi,
the following CVE (Common Vulnerabilities & Exposures) id was
published for libstruts1.2-java some time ago.

CVE-2008-2025[0]:
| Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in Apache Struts before
| 1.2.9-162.31.1 on SUSE Linux Enterprise (SLE) 11, before 1.2.9-108.2
| on SUSE openSUSE 10.3, before 1.2.9-198.2 on SUSE openSUSE 11.0, and
| before 1.2.9-162.163.2 on SUSE openSUSE 11.1 allows remote attackers
| to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via unspecified vectors related
| to "insufficient quoting of parameters."

Unfortunately the vulnerability described above is not important enough
to get it fixed via regular security update in Debian stable.
It does not warrant a DSA.

However it would be nice if this could get fixed via a regular point
update[1].
Please contact the release team for this.

This is an automatically generated mail, in case you are already working
on an
upgrade this is of course pointless.
