CVE-2008-3533
==========================================================
A security issue affects the following Ubuntu releases:

This advisory also applies to the corresponding versions of
Kubuntu, Edubuntu, and Xubuntu.
The problem can be corrected by upgrading your system to the
following package versions:
Ubuntu 7.10:

format strings correctly when displaying certain error messages. If a
user were tricked into opening a specially crafted URI, a remote attacker
could execute arbitrary code with user privileges.
