Detail

A security issue affects the following Ubuntu releases:

Ubuntu 5.04 (Hoary Hedgehog) Ubuntu 5.10 (Breezy Badger)

The following packages are affected:

kaffeine

The problem can be corrected by upgrading the affected package to version 0.6-0ubuntu2.1 (for Ubuntu 5.04), or 0.7-0ubuntu4.1 (for Ubuntu 5.10). In general, a standard system upgrade is sufficient to effect the necessary changes.
