A security hole was discovered in the package mentioned above.

___________________________________________________________________________
1. Problem Summary
There is a bug in the traceroute command that can possibly be use
by local users to obtain super user privilege. It is suggested
to upgrade your traceroute to the version provided.
2. Impact
Possibility for regular user gaining root access on a machine.

Update the package from our ftp server by running the following
command:
rpm -Uvh --nodeps --Force ftp_path_to_filename
Where ftp_path_to_filename is the following:

download and install the SRPM. Simply installing the SRPM alone
WILL NOT CLOSE THE SECURITY HOLE.
