Package: kvpnc
Version: 0.9.0-1
Severity: important


The default script security level of the openvpn package in lenny does 
not allow the execution of user-defined programs or scripts. kvpnc,
which uses hook scripts with openvpn to import for example routing 
information, which is pushed from the server to the client, is not aware 
of this. Bringing up the VPN connection fails with the error message 
shown below. As far as I can tell, there is no way to set the 
script security level in kvpnc or to configure kvpnc to pass additional 
arguments to the vpn server executable.

I'm not sure if this should be rated 'important', as it's less of a bug 
than rather a missing feature, but it sure will hurt many users.

Cheers,
Tobias
