The debian-private mailing list leak, part 1. Volunteers have complained about Blackmail. Lynchings. Character assassination. Defamation. Cyberbullying. Volunteers who gave many years of their lives are picked out at random for cruel social experiments. The former DPL's girlfriend Molly de Blanc is given volunteers to experiment on for her crazy talks. These volunteers never consented to be used like lab rats. We don't either. debian-private can no longer be a safe space for the cabal. Let these monsters have nowhere to hide. Volunteers are not disposable. We stand with the victims.

This Advisory was originally published by AUSCERT:

>   The text of this advisory was originally released by AUSCERT as AA-97.03
>   ftpd Signal Handling Vulnerability on January 29, 1997, and updated on
>   April 18, 1997.

and has now percolated through the somewhat clogged channels at CERT, so if we 
were known to either CERT or AUSCERT we should get a mention.

I think we need to make ourselves known --- `Already fixed in Debian' is 
excellent publicity.

The advisory mentions that wu-ftpd users should upgrade to
wu-ftpd 2.4.2-beta-12, while our latest seems to be wu-ftpd 2.4 --- should 
this be reported as a bug ?

Cheers, Phil.
