hey, I noticed that the moxa input checking security bug described by CVE-2005-0504 appears to remain unfixed upstream. The issue is described here: http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2005-0504 Debian has been shipping the following patch from Andres Salomon. I tried contacting the listed maintainer a few months ago but received no response. I've tested that this still applies to and compiles against 2.6.20-rc3.
