CVE-2011-0430

   Andrew Deason discovered that a double free in the Rx server
   process could lead to denial of service or the execution of

   It was discovered that insufficient error handling in the
   kernel module could lead to denial of service.

For the oldstable distribution (lenny), this problem has been fixed in
version 1.4.7.dfsg1-6+lenny4. Due to a technical problem with the
buildd infrastructure the update is not yet available, but will be
installed into the archive soon.
