Summary
The remote host is missing an update to adzapper announced via advisory DSA 966-1. Thomas Reifferscheid discovered that adzapper, a proxy advertisement zapper add-on, when installed as plugin in squid, the Internet object cache, can consume a lot of CPU resources and hence cause a denial of service on the proxy host. The old stable distribution (woody) does not contain an adzapper package.
