You mean, because of:

Security update 2012.55 — releases from 0.52 to 2011.54 are potentially vulnerable to code execution as root by an authenticated user if a command="..." option is used in authorized_keys. Release 2012.55 fixes the problem.

The update is going to happen for RC3,
Thanks

Also, will you be stepping up the version of Samba, to fix CVE-2012-1182
(remote root code execution vulnerability)? 3.5.12 was bundled with
RC2, 3.5.14 seems to be the fixed release.

Isn't tracking third-party software fun? Granted, I'm probably the only
person crazy enough to expose my 323 to the internet, but even that's
behind iptables and IPsec. :)

It's 3.5.15 (and counting?)

I'have made the upgrade to both dropbear and samba, and they will be available
for RC3 (that I don't know when it will be!)

I would appreciate related issues to be opened in the code site, where it is
easier to notice. Please use http://code.google.com/p/alt-f/issues/list in the
future.

Thanks
