One hopes that those of you using Debian have seen this already
through the Debian security mailing lists.

But if not...

excuse me, i am a little behind on the news. nevertheless:

it did happen, within 8 hours of my posting too. so for completeness,
make sure the following lines are in your /etc/apt/sources.list file:

for those running woody:
  deb http://security.debian.org/ woody/updates main contrib non-free 

for those running stable (== woody currently): 
  deb http://security.debian.org/ stable/updates main contrib non-free 

for those running testing:
  deb http://security.debian.org/ testing/updates main contrib non-free 

and don't forget to apt-get update && apt-get upgrade at *least* once
a week.
