Hi,

unfortunately, Secunia does not list any references for SA32329 [1].
Apparantly, they are refering to the last three commits to
libs/Smarty_Compiler.class.php, r2781:2797 [2].

However, this issue is not fixed in 2.6.20, and I could not find a
2.6.20-1 release. I have no idea where this version information comes
from.

It might be worthwhile to check applications that bundle smarty, like
tikiwiki, gallery 2 or PEAR-PhpDocumentor.
This issue has now been given CVE-2008-4810 and CVE-2008-4811. However, isn't 
CVE-2008-4811 already covered by CVE-2008-4810 or could someone please 
enlighten me?
The latest patch I can see from upstream is an additional preg_replace() and 
he kept the old one.

Cheers
Steffen
