this is not a security issue, reassigning to maintainer
net-misc/l7-filter-1.4 has been removed for this reason. 03 Oct 2006; Daniel Black <dragonheart@gentoo.org> -l7-filter-1.4.ebuild, -l7-filter-2.2.ebuild: death to earlier broken versions Always use a latest l7-filter build with very modern kernels.
