[JDEV] Debian Security Advisory for jabberd 1.4.2

[Peter Saint-Andre]

FYI, Debian Security Advisory DSA-414-1 reads in part:

******

    A vulnerability was discovered in jabber, an instant messaging
    server, whereby a bug in the handling of SSL connections could cause
    the server process to crash, resulting in a denial of service.

    For the current stable distribution (woody) this problem has
    been fixed in version 1.4.2a-1.1woody1.

    For the unstable distribution (sid) this problem has been
    fixed in version 1.4.3-1.

    We recommend that you update your jabber package.
