The remote host is missing an update to curl announced via advisory DSA 919-1. Several problems were discovered in libcurl, a multi-protocol file transfer library. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifies the following problems: CVE-2005-3185 A vulnerability has been discovered a buffer overflow in libcurl that could allow the execution of arbitrary code. CVE-2005-4077 Stefan Esser discovered several off-by-one errors that allows local users to trigger a buffer overflow and cause a denial of service or bypass PHP security restrictions via certain URLs. For the old stable distribution (woody) these problems have been fixed in version 7.9.5-1woody1.
