The remote host is missing an update for the Debian 'ekg' package(s) announced via the DSA-760-1 advisory. Several vulnerabilities have been discovered in ekg, a console Gadu Gadu client, an instant messaging program. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifies insecure temporary file creation, potential shell command injection, and arbitrary command execution in contributed scripts
