[ale] free bsd security breach disclosed a few days ago

[Ron Frazier (ALE)]

Hi guys,

FYI, I heard about this on the latest Security Now podcast.  There was a recent security breach at the free bsd organization.  If you've installed free bsd since 09/19/12, you may need to reinstall to guarantee that some of your packages are not corrupt.  I don't know anything else about it and I don't use free bsd.

Sincerely,

Ron

(PS - If you email me and don't get a quick response, you might want to
call on the phone.  I get about 300 emails per day from alternate energy
mailing lists and such.  I don't always see new email messages very quickly.)
