I just got a report that debian has released [1] a security fix for

Thanks!

I can't find any info on it either. The CAN entry only shows 'reserved' - not very helpful. I can't figure out a way to see the patch without having access to a debian machine; anyone know how to do that (or have a debian box so you can show the patch contents)?

This looks like the patch:
* Applied patch by Javier Fernández-Sanguino Peña to fix insecure
     temporary file creation [debian/patches/010_CAN-2005-2960_tmpfile]

On another note, I just noticed that 2.1.16 is the current version on cfengine.org - did I just miss the announcement, or was there one?
