TL;DR: upcoming upstream point release update with security related
fixes.

Hi,

Please consider unblocking the upcoming package owncloud

The 7.0.4 upstream point release is expected next week, and it adds a
new OC\Security\Crypto class that should be useful for the next security
fixes (and maybe some security fixes, information will be updated with
the actual release; I can follow up to a private e-mail address for the
release team if you want to discuss not yet disclosed security matters).

Among the other fixes, it removes an annoying behaviour, causing the
config file (in /etc) to be touched on CardDAV connexion, changing its
timestamp for no good reason, and making program looking at changes in
the /etc directory (e.g., metche) to spam the administrator.

In case you’d refuse the whole upcoming new release, I’d like you to
consider allowing at least this targeted fix (see the minimal changes in
lib/private/config.php from the attached diff). Please let me know and
I’ll upload owncloud/7.0.3+dfsg-2 ASAP and update this request (or open
a new one if you may still consider 7.0.4+dfsg-1 later).

The attached filtered debdiff is not too big considering the five new
files (see binary debdiff in P.-S.) are providing 308 insertions there:

 50 files changed, 801 insertions(+), 143 deletions(-)

It has been filtered with the following command (7.0.4~rc1 is the
version that has been uploaded to experimental yesterday, and 7.0.4
should not add too much change to it):

debdiff --ignore-space ../owncloud_7.0.{3,4~rc1}+dfsg-1.dsc | \
	filterdiff -x '*/core/doc/*' -x'*/apps/*/tests/*'

- the documentation ('*/core/doc/*') change is irrelevant, since it’s
  provided by owncloud-doc anyway (bug report will follow if you accept
  this pre-approval);
- the tests are not shipped (nor used at build time yet since they rely
  on an installed ownCloud instance)

The Debian changelog follows, it merely document actual upstream
changes, the (WIP) upstream changelog is currently:

- Added XMLWriter check
- Better deleted outdated previews
- Store storage credential in session only if needed
- Don't disclose relative directory path for single shared files of user
- Password reset fixes
- Fix enable app only for a specific group
- fixing port configuration in trusted domains
- LDAP fixes
- Make group search case sensitive
- Allow admin to change users display name 
- Several smaller fixes
