Description:
Updated links packages fix security vulnerability:
A security issue has been discovered in Links, which can be exploited
by malicious people to conduct spoofing attacks. The problem is that
the certificate presented by a server at the beginning of an SSL
session is not verified. This can be exploited to spoof valid servers
via a man-in-the-middle attack (SA33391).
