The remote host is missing an update to fbi announced via advisory DSA 1124-1. Toth Andras discovered that the fbgs framebuffer postscript/PDF viewer contains a typo, which prevents the intended filter against malicious postscript commands from working correctly. This might lead to the deletion of user data when displaying a postscript file.
