[SECURITY] [DLA 1005-1] mercurial security update



Package        : mercurial
Version        : 2.2.2-4+deb7u4
CVE ID         : CVE-2017-9462
Debian Bug     : 861243

In Mercurial before 4.1.3, "hg serve --stdio" allows remote
authenticated users to launch the Python debugger, and consequently
execute arbitrary code, by using --debugger as a repository name.

For Debian 7 "Wheezy", these problems have been fixed in version
2.2.2-4+deb7u4.

We recommend that you upgrade your mercurial packages.
