Thanks for pointing this out. This indeed affects the Debian packages
as well. The first described vuln (path traversal) got fixed upstream
in 0.7.35, I have 0.7.38 ready for upload.

However, it seems that upstream missed the second one (the XSS). I
pinged him again in the corresponding bug:

  http://bugs.calibre-ebook.com/ticket/7980

The path traversal is fixed with this patch:

  http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~kovid/calibre/trunk/revision/7302

which looks easily backportable to the 0.7.7 version in testing. But
before I prepare this, I'd like to see the XSS fixed as well.

Thanks,

Martin
