-The fix for CVE-2006-6332 in r1842 was not entirely correct. In
-encode_ie() the bound check did not consider that each byte from
-the IE causes two bytes to be written into buffer. That could
-lead to a kernel oops, but does not allow code injection. This is
-now fixed.
-
-Due to the type of this problem it does not trigger another
-urgent security bugfix release. v0.9.3 is at the door anyway.
