DSA130-1 2002-06-01: 

Users of the not-yet-released woody distribution should ensure that they
are running ethereal 0.9.4-1 or a later version.

Today: 2002-06-06:

testing  ethereal 0.9.3-1   (1304.8k)  
   Network traffic analyzer 
unstable  ethereal 0.9.4-1   (1475.3k)  
   Network traffic analyzer 

As you can see 6 day after a security advisory woody is still vulnerable. Of
course potao is, too. But the potato version is on security.debian.org, for
woody it is not:

This is why we can't release.
