Description:
Updated usbmuxd packages fix security vulnerability:
It was discovered that usbmuxd did not correctly perform bounds checking
when processing the SerialNumber field of USB devices. An attacker with
physical access could use this to crash usbmuxd or potentially execute
arbitrary code as the 'usbmux' user (CVE-2012-0065).
