Bug description:
  Binary package hint: graphviz

  I found this vulnerability report:

  http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2008-4555

  and the version of graphviz in Hardy looks like it could be vulnerable
  (the Gentoo report seems to assume it is). I looked here for reported
  bugs against the graphviz package:

  https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/graphviz/+bugs

  and found none I could associate with the vulnerability. I also looked
  at the change log:

  http://changelogs.ubuntu.com/changelogs/pool/main/g/graphviz/graphviz_2.16-3ubuntu2/changelog

  and it doesn't seem to be a previously addressed issue either.

  It looks like the fix was back-ported to the jaunty package here:

  https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/jaunty-
  changes/2008-November/000076.html

  We are using:

  # lsb_release -rd
  Description:    Ubuntu 8.04.4 LTS
  Release:        8.04

  and the package information is:

  # apt-cache policy graphviz
  graphviz:
    Installed: 2.16-3ubuntu2
    Candidate: 2.16-3ubuntu2
    Version table:
   *** 2.16-3ubuntu2 0
          500 http://wssds02.health.state.mn.us hardy/main Packages
          100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

  Thank you,
