There are CVE numbers[1] allocated for these issues, Ubuntu has
released fixed packages, and fixed packages are in Debian Testing and
Unstable, but no official NAS release.

I have heard nothing substantial regarding client issues yet, so I'd
suggest making a release of the current code. WDYT?

[1] CVE-2013-4256
    CVE-2013-4257
    CVE-2013-4258

Erik
