  libwebkit-1.0-1-dbg             1.0.1-2ubuntu0.2
  libwebkit-dev                   1.0.1-2ubuntu0.2

  libwebkit-dev                   1.0.1-4ubuntu0.1

After a standard system upgrade you need to restart any applications that
use WebKit, such as Epiphany-webkit and Midori, to effect the necessary
changes.

could cause a denial of service or possibly execute arbitrary code with the
privileges of the user invoking the program. (CVE-2009-1687, CVE-2009-1690,
