The problem + allowed escaping the root (and reading files) when used with + ``paste.httpserver`` (this does not effect other servers, and does + not apply when proxying requests from Apache to + ``paste.httpserver``). + +* ``paste.httpserver`` and ``paste.fixture.TestApp`` url-unquote + ``SCRIPT_NAME`` and ``PATH_INFO``, as specified in the CGI spec. + Thanks to Jon Nelson for pointing out both these issues. + * ``paste.registry`` now works within the ``EvalException`` interactive debugger. |
