The remote host is missing an update to ethereal announced via advisory DSA 130-1. The ethereal versions prior to 0.9.3 were vulnerable to an allocation error in the ASN.1 parser. Additionally, a number of vulnerabilities were discussed in ethereal security advisory enpa-sa-00004. The ethereal version in Debian 2.2 (potato) is not vulnerable to the issues raised in this later advisory. Users of the not-yet-released woody distribution should ensure that they are running ethereal 0.9.4-1 or a later version
