Debian 4.0: DSA-1700-1 Critical: Lasso Library Validation Bypass

It was discovered that Lasso, a library for Liberty Alliance and SAML
protocols performs incorrect validation of the return value of OpenSSL's
DSA_verify() function.

For the stable distribution (etch), this problem has been fixed in
version 0.6.5-3+etch1.

For the upcoming stable distribution (lenny) and the unstable
distribution (sid), this problem has been fixed in version 2.2.1-2.

We recommend that you upgrade your lasso package.
