I also released 2.30.7 with this security fix and the following other
fixes:
- Fix double free issue in chooser.
- Only set WINDOWPATH in the user session if it not NULL.

The 3.0.3 and 2.32.2 releases fix a security bug of the GNOME Display Manager
(GDM) program:
-CVE-2011-1709 - fix URI lockdown with glib 2.28 and greater
The bug means that in certain cases a user can bring up a web browser
in in the login screen,
running as the unprivileged "gdm" user.
Thanks go to Vincent Untz for fixing this issue.
All users who use GDM with glib 2.28 or greater are advised to upgrade
to this version.
