Debian has issued an update for mlmmj. This fixes a vulnerability, which can be exploited by malicious users to disclose system information and manipulate certain data.

The vulnerability is caused due to the administrator web interface not properly sanitising certain input before using it in file operations, which can be exploited to e.g. disclose the existence of arbitrary files or delete files via directory traversal attacks.

Successful exploitation requires valid user credentials.

Solution
Apply updated packages.
