Title:	Ubuntu USN-1483-2 (network-manager-gnome)
Summary:	NOSUMMARY
Description:	Description: The remote host is missing an update to network-manager-gnome announced via advisory USN-1483-2. Details: USN-1483-1 fixed a vulnerability in NetworkManager by disabling the creation of WPA-secured AdHoc wireless connections. This update provides the corresponding change for network-manager-applet. Original advisory details: It was discovered that certain wireless drivers incorrectly handled the creation of WPA-secured AdHoc connections. This could result in AdHoc wireless connections being created without any security at all. This update removes WPA as a security choice for AdHoc connections in NetworkManager. Solution: The problem can be corrected by updating your system to the following package versions: Ubuntu 11.10: network-manager-gnome 0.9.1.90-0ubuntu6.1 Ubuntu 11.04: network-manager-gnome 0.8.4~ git.20110318t152954.9c4c9a0-0ubuntu1.1 Ubuntu 10.04 LTS: network-manager-gnome 0.8-0ubuntu3.1 http://www.securityspace.com/smysecure/catid.html?in=USN-1483-2
