I am not quite sure, but it seems that this mountd bug had been fixed in the latest netstd release (http://www.de.debian.org/Lists-Archives/debian-security-announce-9809/msg00000 .html) Obviously there is some need to improve the efficiency of information spreading about security issues. The debian security web page is also outdated. Cheers, Thomas
