Package: ettercap-common
Version: 0.7.4.2-1
Severity: grave

The new upstream release, 0.7.5, makes major changes in many places.
Examination showed that a significant number of these changes fix
potential security-critical issues, like buffer overruns from
carefully crafted packets.  Since this package must run as root, and
by nature tends to process potentially-hostile network flows, these
are somewhat serious.
