please approve vpnc 0.3.2+SVN20050326-2 (security flaw)



Hello,

the current vpnc package in Sarge has a potential security flaw which is
described in the attached .changes contents well enough. Please allow
Sid's version 0.3.2+SVN20050326-2 to go into Sarge, there AFAICS no
major changes.

The package has been in Sid for 10 days without new bug reports.

Regards,
Eduard.

 .
   * added a check for having a slash in the config file specification (now it
     really accepts absolute paths only and not some random, or even malicious,
     script from the current directory). Before, it was like having "." on the
     first place in root's $PATH.
   * also reverted the vpnc binary lookup order to limit possible effects of
     a similar problem
