Hi,

this security bug (CAN-2004-0990) against libgd2 in woody seems to be
fixed:

libgd2 (2.0.1-10woody2) stable-security; urgency=high

  * Non-maintainer upload by the Security Team
  * Added overflow and failed malloc protections to prevend buffer
    overflows that could lead to arbitrary code execution [gd.c, wbmp.c,
    gd_gd.c, gd_io_dp.c, gdxpm.c, CAN-2004-0941, CAN-2004-0990]
  * Added missing free() [gd_png.c]
  * Added nother integer overflow precaution by Stew Benedict
    <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> [gd_png.c]

AFAICT, the bug report should be closed. I'll leave that for somebody
else to verify, though. Apologies if I'm missing something.

Cheers,
