Binary package hint: openssl

When trying to make our server PCI compliant I found that the latest
openssl package 0.9.8g-4ubuntu3.x hasn't been updated to address
CVE-2009-3245. This is surprising since it has been fixed and released
in Debian stable so I wonder if this is just an oversight here.

"OpenSSL before 0.9.8m does not check for a NULL return value from
bn_wexpand function calls in (1) crypto/bn/bn_div.c, (2)
crypto/bn/bn_gf2m.c, (3) crypto/ec/ec2_smpl.c, and (4)
engines/e_ubsec.c, which has unspecified impact and context-dependent
attack vectors."

Can we get these changes into the 8.04LTS openssl packages? Thanks.
