[hylafax-users] MDKSA-2003:105 - Updated hylafax packages fix remote root vulnerability

[martin <h1h1h1h1h1h1h1@xxxxxxxxx>]

This vulnerability was announced today, but seems to only refer to 
HylaFAX 4.1.3.

Is that because that is latest version that Mandrake cares about, or 
because it has been fixed in more recent versions of HylaFAX?

In particular, does this bug affect HylaFAX4.1.7?

Thanks in advance.

Regards.

Martin
