The remote host is missing an update for the Debian 'libexif' package(s) announced via the DSA-1487-1 advisory. Several vulnerabilities have been discovered in the EXIF parsing code of the libexif library, which can lead to denial of service or the execution of arbitrary code if a user is tricked into opening a malformed image. This update also fixes two potential NULL pointer deferences. For the old stable distribution (sarge), these problems have been fixed in 0.6.9-6sarge2. For the stable distribution (etch), these problems have been fixed in version 0.6.13-5etch2. We recommend that you upgrade your libexif packages
