Description p.jenner 2000-05-12 04:38:40 EDT

bugtraq reported that Netscape 4 up to including 4.72 has a security
problem with SSL connections (that could give people credit card details
via SSL secured shopping).  The bugtraq id is 1188.

Netscape have released Communicator 4.73 which solves the problem.

I would suggest that the Red Hat Netscape packages need upgrading to
version 4.73 to cover the problem.

Sorry if this is already in progress but I could not see another bugzilla
entry about it.
