dircproxy (1.0.5-5ubuntu0.1) feisty-security; urgency=low

  * SECURITY UPDATE: irc_server.c in dircproxy 1.2.0 and earlier allows remote
    attackers to cause a denial of service (segmentation fault) via an ACTION
    command without a parameter, which triggers a NULL pointer dereference, as
    demonstrated using a blank /me message from irssi.
  * src/irc_server.c: Added fix by Steffen Joeris <email address hidden>
    to fix CVE-2007-5226 (LP: #150848)
