  an attacker to create a web page redirecting to a malicious URL that

  using the non-default Advanced user mode (CVE-2008-4690).

  This update corrects these issues and, in addition, makes Lynx always
  prompt the user before loading a lynxcgi: URI.  As well, the default
  lynx.cfg configuration file marks all lynxcgi: URIs as untrusted.";
