John Lightsey discovered a format string injection vulnerability in the localisation of templates in Movable Type, a blogging system. An unauthenticated remote attacker could take advantage of this flaw to execute arbitrary code as the web server user.

For the stable distribution (wheezy), this problem has been fixed in version 5.1.4+dfsg-4+deb7u3.

We recommend that you upgrade your movabletype-opensource packages.
