I was talking about the Debian Security Manual, see my last post (bashing myself :) I've just commited to CVS a new version including some other FAQs: Q: I have suffered a break-in what do I do? A: Read this document and take the appropiate measures outlined here. If you need assistance you might use the debian-security@lists.debian.org to ask for advice on how to recover/patch your system. Q: Program X in Debian is vulnerable, what do I do? A: Take a moment, first, to see if the vulnerability has been announced in public security mailing lists (like Bugtraq) or other forums, the Debian Security Team keeps up to date with this lists, so they might already be aware of the problem. Do not take any further actions if you see an announcement already at <url id="http://security.debian.org">. If you do not see any of this, please send mail on the affected packages as well as a description of the vulnerability as detailed as possible (proof of concept code is also ok) to [EMAIL PROTECTED] which will get you in touch with the security team.
