Hi,



We are pleased to inform you that the security issue "Finjan Appliance

allows local users to gain privileges" described here:

http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2006-3663



has been overcome with version 8.3.6 of Finjan's Vital Security
Appliance (NG 5100/8100), released on 23/7/06.
