Summary
The remote host is missing an update to bluez-utils announced via advisory DSA 782-1. Henryk Plötz discovered a vulnerability in bluez-utils, tools and daemons for Bluetooth. Due to missing input sanitising it is possible for an attacker to execute arbitrary commands supplied as device name from the remote device. The old stable distribution (woody) is not affected by this problem since it doesn't contain bluez-utils packages.
