 Mandriva Linux Security Advisory                         MDVSA-2013:101
 http://www.mandriva.com/en/support/security/
 _______________________________________________________________________

 Package : lynx
 Date    : April 10, 2013
 Affected: Business Server 1.0
 _______________________________________________________________________

 Problem Description:

 Updated lynx package fixes security vulnerability:
 
 Lynx does not verify that the server's certificate is signed by
 a trusted certification authority, which allows man-in-the-middle
 attackers to spoof SSL servers via a crafted certificate, related to
 improper use of a certain GnuTLS function (CVE-2012-5821).
