CAN-2004-0986

The following packages are affected:

The problem can be corrected by upgrading the affected package to

Faheem Mitha noticed that the "iptables" command did not always load
the required modules on its own as it was supposed to. This could lead
to firewall rules not being loaded on system startup.
