===========================================================

A security issue affects the following Ubuntu releases:

Ubuntu 6.06 LTS

This advisory also applies to the corresponding versions of
Kubuntu, Edubuntu, and Xubuntu.

The problem can be corrected by upgrading your system to the
following package versions:

Ubuntu 6.06 LTS:
  bcrelay                                  1.2.3-1ubuntu0.2
  pptpd                                    1.2.3-1ubuntu0.2

In general, a standard system upgrade is sufficient to effect the
necessary changes.

Details follow:

USN-459-1 fixed vulnerabilities in pptpd.  However, a portion of the fix 
caused a regression in session establishment under Dapper for certain 
PPTP clients.  This update fixes the problem.

We apologize for the inconvenience.

Original advisory details:

 A flaw was discovered in the PPTP tunnel server. Remote attackers could 
 send a specially crafted packet and disrupt established PPTP tunnels, 
 leading to a denial of service.


Updated packages for Ubuntu 6.06 LTS:
