Hi,

The following vulnerability was published for libapache-session-perl.

CVE-2013-10075[0]:
| Apache::Session versions through 1.94 for Perl re-creates deleted
| sessions.  The session stores Apache::Session::Store::File and
| Apache::Session::Store::DB_File will create a session that does not
| exist.  This can lead to sessions being revived, potentially with
| data that was to be deleted.


If you fix the vulnerability please also make sure to include the
CVE (Common Vulnerabilities & Exposures) id in your changelog entry.

I might be wrong but I do not really expect that this will get a
fource fix and the CVE exists to document the probme and propose the
workarounds.
