*** This bug is a security vulnerability ***

You have been subscribed to a public security bug by Daniel Holbach (dholbach):

Binary package hint: ldap2dns

so is there some reason why Ubuntu is still using version 0.3.1? current version is 0.4.1
there been numerous bug & security fixes since 0.3.1

is this just a matter of no one being able to produce an updated package
for ubuntu?

Version 0.3.5 - 2005/11/30
+ Added support for DNS SRV records

Version 0.3.3
- Removed a bug which caused ldap2dns to etablish more than one connections
  to the LDAP server.

Version 0.3.2
+ Only patches from Martin Lesser <m-lesser at better-com.de>
  applied. Nothing from myself.
+ connecting to a ldap-server where the server is given as URI works
  (both ldap:// [with TLS] and ldaps://)
+ we use location-codes here, so ldap2dns.c was extended to make use of
  them, this also requires an extension of dns.schema.
