Binary package hint: roundcube

http://web.nvd.nist.gov/view/vuln/detail?vulnId=CVE-2011-1492
steps/utils/modcss.inc in Roundcube Webmail before 0.5.1 does not properly verify that a request is an expected request for an external Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) stylesheet, which allows remote authenticated users to trigger arbitrary outbound TCP connections from the server, and possibly obtain sensitive information, via a crafted request.

All Roundcube versions in Ubuntu are far more recent that 0.5.1, so this probably can be closed.
