Comment 1 Alan Sanderson 2003-07-10 21:05:17 UTC 
When can we expect patched RPMS (that address CAN-2003-0192, CAN-2003-0253 and
CAN-2003-0254) to appear on up2date?
Comment 2 Mark Blevis 2003-08-08 16:11:28 UTC 
This bug was opened on July 9 to address a security issue and it remains 
a "NEW" status issue.  When can we expect movement on this so that Redhat 
users and RHN subscribers aren't being encouraged to use outdated and insecure 
software packages?
Comment 3 Mark J. Cox 2003-08-09 17:04:47 UTC 
I guess it should really be "assigned" since we did start through our internal
errata process which will lead to an errata.  This issue is currently classed as
a low risk.
Comment 4 Mark J. Cox 2003-09-04 07:40:37 UTC 
An errata has been issued which should help the problem described in this bug report. 
This report is therefore being closed with a resolution of ERRATA. For more information
on the solution and/or where to find the updated files, please follow the link below. You may reopen 
this bug report if the solution does not work for you.
