Bug#490127: libwebkit-1.0-1: CVE-2008-2307 javascript memory corruption security issue

[Michael Gilbert]

Package: libwebkit-1.0-1
Version: 1.0.1-1
Severity: grave
Tags: security
Justification: user security hole

the webkit packages in fedora were recently updated to fix a
memory corruption issue in the javascript handler [1].

i'm not sure if this affects sid since the webkit package no longer
indicates the svn version number, but this should be looked at.  it looks 
like webkit svn 34655 includes fixes for the problem.

thanks for the hard work.
