Yes, I found out some tempfile bugs (IIRC that was back in October). Since
the security team had their hands full and the bugs were not as critical as
other bugs they did not see a DSA until recently. I have not updated the DSA
or bug list since april, so there's a lot to add.

If anyone has some spare time, please pick up the wml files from
http://cvs.debian.org/webwml/english/security/audit/?root=webwml
add the advisories / bugs there and provide me with a patch so I can
upload it to the website.

I will make an update of that information, if time permits, sometime
in the future but I currently have my hands full with other stuff.

Regards

Javier
