Summary
The remote host is missing an update to dhis-tools-dns announced via advisory DSA 928-1. Javier Fernandez-Sanguino Pena from the Debian Security Audit project discovered that two scripts in the dhis-tools-dns package, DNS configuration utilities for a dynamic host information System, which are usually executed by root, create temporary files in an insecure fashion. The old stable distribution (woody) does not contain a dhis-tools-dns package.
Solution
Solution
For the stable distribution (sarge) these problems have been fixed in version 5.0-3sarge1. For the unstable distribution (sid) these problems have been fixed in version 5.0-5. We recommend that you upgrade your dhis-tools-dns package. https://secure1.securityspace.com/smysecure/catid.html?in=DSA%20928-1
