The remote host is missing an update for the Debian 'remstats' package(s) announced via the DSA-704-1 advisory. Jens Steube discovered several vulnerabilities in remstats, the remote statistics system. The vulnerabilities include insecure file opening on the unix-server and missing input sanitising in the remoteping service. Upgrade remstats packages immediately

CAN-2005-0387

When processing uptime data on the unix-server a temporary file is opened in an insecure fashion which could be used for a symlink attack to create or overwrite arbitrary files with the permissions of the remstats user.

CAN-2005-0388

The remoteping service can be exploited to execute arbitrary commands due to missing input sanitising.

For the stable distribution (woody) these problems have been fixed in version 1.00a4-8woody1.

For the unstable distribution (sid) these problems have been fixed in version 1.0.13a-5.

We recommend that you upgrade your remstats packages.");
