==========================================================
A security issue affects the following Ubuntu releases:

This advisory also applies to the corresponding versions of
Kubuntu, Edubuntu, and Xubuntu.

The problem can be corrected by upgrading your system to the
following package versions:

Ubuntu 5.10:
  bluez-utils                              2.20-0ubuntu3.1

In general, a standard system upgrade is sufficient to effect the
necessary changes.
