We have received reports that in.uucpd, an authentication agent in the uucp package, does not properly terminate certain long input strings. This has been corrected in uucp package version 1.06.1-11potato3 for Debian 2.2 (potato) and in version 1.06.1-18 for the upcoming (woody) release. We recommend you upgrade your uucp package immediately.
