Hi all,
a new SecurityFocus article has been published. I have been filtering
out non-webappsec related SF article announcements, but I think
patching and defects affects all of us, so I've forwarded this one.
If you'd like me to forward all the SF article announcements, please
e-mail me privately and I'll assess support and decide accordingly.
thanks,
Andrew
