Hi LocutusOfBorg - Thank you for the debdiff. I've made some adjustments
to it in order to follow our security update packing guidelines
(https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SecurityTeam/UpdatePreparation#Packaging):
- Pocket should be trusty-security instead of trusty
- Version should be 3.2.11-2ubuntu1.1 instead of 3.2.11-2ubuntu2
- Patch was missing the DEP3 origin patch tag
- Changelog did not follow the "SECURITY UPDATE:" style
Additionally, I folded in upstream's test patch
(https://www.gitorious.org/gnutls/gnutls/commit/a7be326f0e33cf7ce52b36474c157f782d9ca977).
Build tests are always a nice thing to add.
Thanks!

Title:
libgnutls28 appears to not have been updated for CVE-2014-3466 in
Trusty
Status in gnutls28 package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
Hi,
Although you've pushed out a patch for CVE-2014-3466 to libgnutls26 in
the current stable LTS Ubuntu release (Trusty) you've not pushed out a
corresponding patch for libgnutls28 (which is used by some packages).
Looking at the apt-cache policy output:
$ apt-cache policy libgnutls28
libgnutls28:
Installed: 3.2.11-2ubuntu1
Candidate: 3.2.11-2ubuntu1
Version table:
*** 3.2.11-2ubuntu1 0
500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ trusty/universe amd64 Packages
100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
This would look like a vulnerable version according to the CVE report
(also launchpad shows this package as not having been updated since
the 5th of March).

Can you please push out this patch asap, especially given that the
vulnerability has been widely publicised in the media as of yesterday?
Thanks,
Dr Owain Kenway
