Package : jackrabbit
CVE ID : CVE-2016-6801
Debian Bug : 838204

Lukas Reschke discovered that Apache Jackrabbit, an implementation of
the Content Repository for Java Technology API, did not correctly
check the Content-Type header on HTTP POST requests, enabling
Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) attacks by malicious web sites.

For the stable distribution (jessie), this problem has been fixed in
version 2.3.6-1+deb8u2.

For the unstable distribution (sid), this problem has been fixed in
version 2.12.4-1.

We recommend that you upgrade your jackrabbit packages.
