Notes
woody seems to be still vulnerable
according to bug #178102 a fixed package was uploaded to the security team in January 2003
but no advisory (nor fixed package) have been published yet.
I've mailed maintainer Luca Filipozzi <lfilipoz@debian.org> about this.
No response from maintainer, I have mailed security team.
Martin Schulze don't consider this as an issue for updating woody.
