I'm not sure that it does. The changelog of that version is actually two
items, one of which is about a security issue:

   * Fix local file inclusion bug on systems with two conditions:
     register_globals=on AND missing .htaccess for restricting access to
     .inc.php files. (garvinhicking)

This is not a directory traversal. Are you perhaps referring to
something else?

Regarding the issue as mentioned in the changelog: that is an issue in a
unsupported configuration. It would therefore not be release critical.

Thanks, I will see if it will be necessary and desirable to upload this
new release.
