@p{@p{--}-}@p{--}BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE@p{@p{--}-}@p{--} @p{brk}
Hash: SHA1 @p{par}

A potential security vulnerability has been discovered in the Windows @p{brk}
version of Bitcoin-Qt. If you are running Bitcoin-Qt versions 0.5 @p{brk}
through 0.6 on Windows you should shut it down and upgrade to either @p{brk}
version 0.5.3.1 or 0.6rc4 NOW. @p{par}

The command-line bitcoin daemon (bitcoind), Mac and Linux versions of @p{brk}
Bitcoin-Qt, and versions prior to 0.5 are not affected. @p{par}

Due to the nature of the vulnerability, we believe it would be very @p{brk}
difficult for an attacker to do anything more than crash the @p{brk}
Bitcoin-Qt process. However, because there is a possibility of such a @p{brk}
crash causing remote code execution we consider this a critical issue. @p{par}

Binaries are available at SourceForge: @p{brk}
