libopenssl-ruby (0.1.4a-1sarge1) oldstable; urgency=low
This package includes fixes for CVE-2007-5162.
The upstream author had taken two actions about CVE-2007-5162.

2) The upstream author re-added some fixes for Ruby. It makes Ruby
verify server's identity on default. This is available on ruby_1_8
branch, trunk of the Ruby repository and next release of Ruby 1.8.x.
On Debian, we took the 2nd action of the above.
New libopenssl-ruby1.6 package makes Ruby (Net::HTTPS and
Net::TELNETS) verify server's identity on default if SSL connection
isn't in VERIFY_NONE mode. It require no change user's code.
