Yury Dyachenko discovered that Zend Framework uses the PHP XML parser in an insecure way, allowing attackers to open files and trigger HTTP requests, potentially accessing restricted information.

For the stable distribution (squeeze), this problem has been fixed in version 1.10.6-1squeeze2. For the testing distribution (wheezy), this problem has been fixed in version 1.11.13-1.1. For the unstable distribution (sid), this problem has been fixed in version 1.11.13-1.1. We recommend that you upgrade your zendframework packages.

Extending the art & spirit of PHP, Zend Framework is based on simplicity, object-oriented best practices, corporate friendly licensing, and a rigorously tested agile codebase. Zend Framework is focused on building more secure, reliable, and modern Web 2.0 applications & web services, and consuming widely available APIs from leading vendors like Google, Amazon, Yahoo!, Flickr, as well as API providers and cataloguers like StrikeIron and ProgrammableWeb.
