The remote host is missing an update for the Debian 'shorewall' package(s) announced via the DSA-849-1 advisory. Shorewall firewall could generate an iptables configuration more permissive than the rule set if MAC verification is used in a non-default manner

When MACLIST_DISPOSITION is set to ACCEPT in the shorewall.conf file, all packets from hosts which fail the MAC verification pass through the firewall, without further checks. When MACLIST_TTL is set to a non-zero value, packets from hosts which pass the MAC verification pass through the firewall, again without further checks.

The old stable distribution (woody) is not affected by this problem.

For the stable distribution (sarge) this problem has been fixed in version 2.2.3-2.

For the unstable distribution (sid) this problem has been fixed in version 2.4.1-2.

We recommend that you upgrade your shorewall package.");
