Description:	Summary: The remote host is missing an update for the 'gnutls' package(s) announced via the SSA:2008-320-01 advisory. Vulnerability Insight: New gnutls packages are available for Slackware 12.0, 12.1, and -current to correctly fix the certificate chain verification issue that the upgrade to gnutls-2.6.1 attempted to fix.
