Requested by Moritz Wilhelmy on IRC.
Vulnerabilities fixed:
* CVE-2011-2191
Cross-site request forgery (CSRF) vulnerability in Cherokee-admin in Cherokee
before 1.2.99 allows remote attackers to hijack the authentication of
administrators for requests that insert cross-site scripting (XSS) sequences,
as demonstrated by a crafted nickname field to vserver/apply.
* CVE-2011-2190
The generate_admin_password function in Cherokee before 1.2.99 uses time and
PID values for seeding of a random number generator, which makes it easier
for local users to determine admin passwords via a brute-force attack.
