there's an open bug about this in the debian bts (i'm cc'ing it now). 

my answer is that i'm currently on vacation and don't foresee having the
time to look into this issue for another week or so:

http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=404818

i think for an immediate fix, you should throw together an apache
configuration that restricts remote access to the files in question.  we
have a volunteer in the BR that has stated he'll take a look at digging
up a fix, though i'll prompt some of the debian-security folks to see if
anyone else has enough free time to address this more fully too.

as i stated in the BR, the real fix would be to not have this stuff
web-accessible at all...
